Sacajawea’s Students Enjoy a Puppet Show!

 Caxton Printers sponsored Sacajawea’s second and third grade students’ attendance at “Legends of Coyote” at Jewitt Auditorium.  This puppet show had stories of trickster coyote getting into all kinds of silly situations.  The students laughed so much.  Thank you Caxton Printers for providing this wonderful opportunity to our students!

Let’s walk to school!


October 2nd is Walk to School Day and we would like to invite all of our students that are able to walk or bike to school, to do just that!

Mrs. Hernandez, along with other volunteers will be waiting for all of our walkers and bikers out in three central locations, helping them celebrate Walk to School Day. The three locations will be the front of the school, the bike rack area and the Kinder and 1st playground. Each student that checks in with either Mrs. Hernandez or our volunteers will get a chance to win a bike!

Hope to see many happy faces tomorrow morning!

Need Help - Assembling Lab Tables - SAC STEM Center

Know someone who loves to put furniture together.  I (Mr. Webster) need a couple people to help me assemble several lab tables for our new STEM Center at Sacajawea.  We are super excited to get this up and running.  If you are available to help on Saturday or Sunday, please go to this Doodle Poll (LINK) to let me know your availability.  Possible work times include Saturday AM, Saturday Afternoon, or Sunday Afternoon.

Email (pwebster@caldwellschools.org) or call at school (208-455-3333x1437) if you have questions.

No major tools or expertise needed.  Just willing hands.

This is what the tables will look like when they are assembled.

SAC 5th Graders Study Stream Science


Mrs. Rudan's 5th grade class had the chance to travel to the Boise Water Shed to do some hands-on science related to streams. What a great opportunity to do STEM learning that matters.

Rotation #1: Toilet horseshoes and water testing for turbidity, pH, temp &  oxygen




Rotation #2: Macro invertebrate collection and identification




Rotation #3: Tour of "the chocolate river"... right after lunch 🤪🤢


Rotation #4: Hands-on Educational center


We are so proud of our students, and the way they represent our community.
