Learning and Leading Together
Every Child Every Day
Scotts Creek School is proud to offer inclusive incentives and support programs that promote student achievement and success. A variety of course offerings are available to students: Enrichment classes, such as Yearbook, Newspaper, Band, Leadership, Lego Robotics, etc., are provided for Middle School students grades six, seven, and eight. Physical Education, Media, Art, and Music classes are available for all students, Kindergarten through grade Eight.
A full range of sports teams are available for sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students. Student Council and Peer Mediators work with their peers to incorporate desired programs, behaviors, and student goals to help make Scotts Creek School a great place to learn. Tutoring programs give additional assistance to students as needed, and afterschool care is provided on-site by Southwestern Child Development.
As a Leader in Me School, Scotts Creek provides comprehensive opportunities to develop student leadership. Our teachers and students work to apply the “Seven Habits for Healthy Kids” in all areas of their daily school activities. Students set Wildly Important Goals, both personally and academically, to assist with their leadership development.
Our ultimate goal as a school is for our students to become strong leaders in both local and global settings. Parent and community partnerships are also an important part of Scotts Creek. The PTA and parent volunteer programs actively support student learning goals. Annual events, such as Fall Festival, Book Fairs, Curriculum Fair, drama presentations, and sporting competitions – all include community members. Partnerships with Western Carolina University, Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, Jackson County Health Department, Community Table, local businesses, clubs, and religious organizations all strengthen the partnership between the school and community. It is our goal to provide a positive, comprehensive, educational experience for all of our students.
Scotts Creek School’s highly qualified faculty and staff are committed to strengthening the instruction of the Essential Standards and preparing students to become “College and Career Ready.” Thank you for your continued support. We are very pleased with the overall academic progress that our students have demonstrated in recent years, and we continue to work hard to provide academic rigor and opportunities for overall student success.
