The Sac Elementary reached their goal of Raider PRIDE tickets by showing respect, responsible and safe behavior. The PBIS team planned for KG-6th grade to play at the park in Sac City to celebrate.
Last Friday, some of our Family and Consumer Sciences and Chemistry classes had a great experience this last Friday, with a presentation from Iowa National Guard recruiters Jesse Galles and Jake Shirbroun.
They shared information about Meals Ready to Eat (MREs): explaining how they work, their nutritional value, and the science behind their design. Students also had the opportunity to sample a variety of MREs, which made for a fun and engaging hands-on learning experience.
In addition, Jesse and Jake spoke with students about the Iowa National Guard as a future career and education option, helping our students consider more opportunities available after high school.
We appreciate the Iowa National Guard for taking the time to connect classroom learning with real-world applications and career exploration.

👀Did you know that the average overall school levy tax rate in the State of Iowa is currently $13.21 per $1,000 valuation. The current ESC overall school levy rate is $11.64 per $1,000 valuation. If the proposed PPEL levy increase passes and the 34 cents was added to our current rate, East Sac County residents would have a school levy tax rate that is more than $1.20 below the state average. 👀

East Sac County 2nd graders had their second visit from Dakota, the Hagge Park Naturalist. Over the last few weeks our students watched their caterpillars grow, form chrysalis', and eventually become butterflies. Dakota came back to help us tag them and release them into the wild so that they can start their journey south. The students loved this experience and were a little sad to see them go!
A Night of Friendship: ESC Vocal Concert🎶
Last night, our high school choir sang with full emotion and full volume in their fall vocal concert, “A Night of Friendship.”
The evening featured a thoughtfully chosen set of songs that celebrated connection, trust, and resilience. From the "Die with a Smile” to the heartfelt harmonies in “Count on Me,” our talented students brought each piece to life with passion and precision. The haunting tones of “The Hanging Tree” were performed with stunning vocal control, while “Friend Like Me” added a burst of fun and flair to the stage. The night closed with a powerful rendition of “No One is Alone"!
We’re so proud of our performers for their hard work and dedication.
Great job by all involved!💛🎤👏

The kindergartners had an exciting day last Thursday. In the morning, Firefighter Chris came into each K room to show the students his full firefighting gear. He talked to them about how the gear protects firefighters from getting hurt and what his job is like. He even put on his oxygen mask and tank so the kids could hear his breathing. Then in the afternoon the kindergartners got to ride on top of the fire trucks around town! It was a great day to be a kindergartner!
