Today we celebrate the heart of our school—our nurses ❤️
Happy School Nurse Day to the two who do it all: from bandaging scraped knees to offering a calm, reassuring presence when it’s needed most. Your care, compassion, and dedication make a difference in the lives of our students every single day.
Thank you both for keeping our school healthy, safe, and supported—we appreciate you more than words can say! 🩺✨ #SCWeR1

Retirement Spotlight: Mrs. Sarah Pruden 💙💛
After 27 years in education—all at Scott City—Mrs. Pruden is retiring, leaving behind a legacy of dedication, leadership, and love for literacy.
A 1991 graduate of Scott City herself, she returned in 1999 to begin her teaching career. She spent 11 years teaching 6th grade Communication Arts before moving to 7th grade ELA and later taking on 8th grade as well. In the 2016–2017 school year, she became the high school librarian, where she also advocated for including fifth graders in the library as part of the middle school experience.
In addition to her work in the classroom and library, Mrs. Pruden has served as publications adviser, overseeing all three yearbooks and the middle school’s quarterly newsletter—helping students find their voice and tell their stories.
Her connection to Scott City runs deep, with both of her sons attending school here—one graduating in 2017 and the other going on to graduate from Notre Dame High School in 2022.
As she enters retirement, she’s looking forward to “Nana” life and spending time at home with her dog.
Thank you, Mrs. Pruden, for 27 incredible years at Scott City Schools. Your impact will be felt for generations. 💙💛 #SCWeR1

Retirement Spotlight: Mrs. Amanda Dannemueller 💙💛
After 25 years in education—including 7 years at Scott City—Mrs. Dannemueller is retiring from the classroom.
During her time here, she taught a wide variety of courses, especially in her early years—from teaching 30 boys how to officiate to preparing high school students for the first-ever Government EOC. In recent years, she found her passion in the classroom teaching four sections of 7th grade math and two sections of Pre-Algebra each day.
In addition to her work in the classroom, she served as the high school Student Council sponsor for seven years, where she made lasting memories while guiding student leaders and helping shape school culture.
But perhaps most importantly, Scott City Schools has been home for her family. All three of her children attended school here, and she shared how much it has meant to have the Scott City community embrace their family—through the adoption of their youngest and the graduations of their two oldest.
Thank you, Mrs. Dannemueller, for your years of dedication, heart, and impact on Scott City Schools. Your influence will be felt for years to come. 💙💛 #SCWeR1
