We’re incredibly grateful for the generosity of Arevon during their work on the Kelso Solar Project ☀️
Arevon made a $35,000 donation to our school district—an investment that will make a lasting impact on our students, staff, and community.
We also had the opportunity to connect with Pat McDonnell, Senior Manager of Community Relations, who visited to build relationships and learn more about our district.
Arevon’s commitment goes beyond energy—they focus on strengthening communities through education, public safety and health, housing, and food security. Their hope is that this donation creates a ripple effect, inspiring even more positive change.
Thank you, Arevon, for striving to be a great neighbor and for believing in our schools 💙 #SCWeR1

🎭 Congratulations to the Scott City High School Drama Club!
Our students recently performed at the MSHSAA Theatre Districts on Thursday, March 5, competing against six schools with their performance of Please Don’t Be My Drama Teacher by Bradley Walton. The team tied for 3rd place and finished 4th after the tie breaker—an incredible accomplishment!
For many of our students, this was their first time performing on a large college campus stage, making the experience even more memorable.
✨ A special congratulations to senior Ann, who was recognized as an All-District Honors Actor in a One Act Play for her outstanding performance.
If you see these students around campus, be sure to congratulate them on representing Scott City so well! 👏🎭 #SCWeR1

Due to a sewer line break in our kitchen facility, we are unable to provide food services at this time.
As a result, school will be canceled on Thursday, March 19th and Friday, March 20th.
Please note the following:
Instruction: We will utilize AMI Days 1 and 2 for these two dates.
Extracurriculars: After-school activities and sports should proceed as scheduled. Coaches or sponsors will contact you directly if there are any specific changes to your student’s program.
We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we complete these necessary repairs.
We’re working hard to get the repairs finished and look forward to seeing everyone back soon!
