Our History
Sacajawea Elementary was originally built in 1977, serving the Salmon Creek/Felida area.
The school is rich with activities that bring together students, parents, and staff. Many of the projects center on improving the school through student-led environmental projects and conservation. Sacajawea also offers a unique opportunity for fifth-grade students to participate in the school’s own TV productions. Skyhawk News involves students both in front of and behind the cameras for a live daily news broadcast.
