The East Sac County 5th grade students in our Extended Learning Program had an exciting day at the Lakeland TAG Passion Project Convention in Okoboji! After several months of research and hard work on their passion projects, students spent the day learning, presenting, and enjoying fun activities with other TAG students from around the area. We are proud of their effort, creativity, and dedication! Great job, everyone!

East Sac County’s Parade of Bands concert last night was a great showcase of our student musicians! 🎶
Students in grades 5-12 performed, beginning with the 7th/8th grade and high school jazz bands, followed by the concert bands starting with 5th grade and progressing all the way up through high school.
It was wonderful to see the growth and talent across all grade levels. And a nice message for all seniors band members as they presented their parents with a rose.
A great performance by all!
Huge shoutout to our senior members of soccer, track, golf, band, choir, student council, softball, and baseball for kicking off their Spring Fling week at High Five Friday!
Our younger Raiders always look forward to seeing high school students show up and help start their day on a positive note—it truly makes a difference!
Way to lead by example. Go Raiders!

Alayna from Loess Hills joined us Monday for our final agriculture session of the year! She wrapped things up with a fun game of Jeopardy, helping students review everything they’ve learned each month.
Thank you, Alayna, for your time and dedication to teaching our students about agriculture throughout the year. We appreciate you making learning both fun and meaningful!

Susan and Kelsey from Iowa Trust Bank in Sac City visited our East Sac County 2nd graders today to talk about earning, saving, and spending money. Susan read a book to the students about making smart choices with their money, and every student received their own piggy bank to start saving!
Thank you to Susan, Kelsey, and Iowa Trust Bank for taking the time to support our students and teach them valuable financial skills!
