Our district provides a dynamic learning environment with an early childhood center, five elementary schools, a middle school, a high school, and an alternative high school.

Serving South Sioux City and Dakota City, we embrace diversity as a strength, preparing students for success in a global marketplace. Our students are rich in leadership, languages, culture, and life, bringing unique perspectives that enhance our school community. Our high school’s college and career academy model ensures all students are ready for both college and careers, focusing on high-skill, high-wage, and high-demand pathways that meet workforce needs in Northeast Nebraska.

Our students lead with kindness and service, giving back through programs like Cardinal Christmas Baskets, Cardinal Mentors, and Student Advisory Groups. In SSC, kindness is a Cardinal rule, shaping a culture of respect, inclusivity, and support for all.
