School Notes
Sauk Valley Community College was created by the citizens of Public
Community College District #506 through public referendum in June
1965. Since that time, Sauk has expanded its programs to provide
opportunities not only in the traditional transfer areas, but also
in vocational-technical, adult and continuing education, community
service, and career education. In recent years, Sauk's commitment
to the public has included intercollegiate athletics and cultural
offerings. Sauk Valley Community College provides a comprehensive
program of student services, including academic, career and
personal counseling, financial aid, student support services, job
placement assistance, co-curricular activities, performing arts
opportunities and intercollegiate athletics. These services, in
combination with instructional services, increase educational
access for all and contribute to student success and enrichment.
The Sauk Child Care Center offers daytime care and educational
activities on a fee basis for children whose parents are employed
by the College or enrolled in classes at the College. Professional,
trained, child care workers and SVCC's Human Services curriculum
students are employed to supervise and operate the facilty, which
is licensed by the Illinois Department of Children and Family
Services. The College first received accreditation status in March
1972 with the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools
which has since changed its name to The Higher Learning Commission.
In 1992, and again in 2002, the College earned the maximum ten-year
accreditation.
