Today Board President Dastrup and Superintendent Anderson participated in Sage Elementary's first annual Dust Devil Color Run! The fundraising event was held to help the school raise funds for playground improvements. Thank you to parents and community members for supporting the project! 🏃🏽♀️🏃🏃♂️💨
UPDATE: the power has been restored.
ECSD is aware that some of our schools currently have no power. Classes are still in session and instruction has not been interrupted. The estimated time of restoration according to the utility company is still to be determined. Classes will be dismissed at their normal time. Parents will be notified if the status of the situation changes. If you have additional questions or concerns, please contact the school directly.
Last Tuesday, the Board of Trustees received a presentation from Southside Teacher Classroom Innovations. Teachers Audrey Karr and Tarah Leeland, with the help from several students, presented on the school's strategies in developing Nevada's Portrait of a Learner. Some of these classroom activities include STEM projects and the implementation of emotions journaling in the classroom.

Calling all Elko County Secondary Students (high school students)!
You are invited to attend a free concert Tuesday, August 22 from 10:30- 11:15 AM at the Elko High School Performing Arts Building featuring world-renowned performer Alex Boyé. Boyé’s lively performance, You Are a 10, encourages connection amongst peers and raises mental health awareness.
Boyé’s positive message aligns with our District and community aspirations found in our Strategic Plan 2023-2026: Our Relationships with families are productive and meaningful and Our Individual Health and collective wellness are essential to our success. This event is co-sponsored by the Cook Center for Human Connection and the Elko Federal Credit Union—our community partners who value and recognize the wellbeing of our students and staff. Families of students are also welcome to attend.
About Boye
“Alex Boyé is known for his dynamic African-infused music that has gained over 1 billion views on YouTube. After being named 2017 Artist of the Year and grand prize winner in a music contest sponsored by Pepsi & Hard Rock Cafe, he performed a half-time show for NFL's Monday Night Football this past December in Miami. Alex’s voice was featured in “Cruel Summer,” a short film by Kanye West that premiered at the Cannes Film festival. He has shared the stage with many notable artists including, Jay-Z, Tim McGraw, George Michael, Missy Elliott, Justin Timberlake, The Beach Boys, and opened for Olivia Newton John at the world-renowned Royal Albert Hall, fulfilling a life-time dream. Boyé, of Nigerian descent, was raised in London, became a U.S citizen on Feb 12th, 2012, and is an official ambassador for many causes, including the American Foundation of Suicide Prevention, and speaks across the country giving entertaining keynotes on mental wellness. His remarkable studio recordings, viral videos, film appearances, and solo performances led to his unforgettable first audition on NBC’s America’s Got Talent, where judge Howie Mandel stated, 'In my six years here, this is my favorite music act ever—it really is!'
