It’s great when the older East Sac County students in the building get to build connections and work with our younger students!!! Fifth and sixth graders get this opportunity through Raider Buddies. Raider Buddies is a before school program that allows students a one-on-one opportunity to play board games, complete lego challenges and puzzles, read to one another and more. On Wednesdays everyone in the building reads before school, so students got to pick books to share with one another. Pretty COOL!!!!
