- What I like most about SVCC
- My students and my co-workers are the reasons I enjoy teaching at S.V.C.C. The smaller class sizes at Sauk allow me the opportunity to get to know my students better than I might at a larger school. I also appreciate that the administration, faculty, and staff at S.V.C.C. work together to provide an excellent educational experience for every Sauk student.
