💪🇺🇸 The 4th annual “Sweat 4 a VET Challenge” was another huge success!

Over just 45 minutes, 18 high school students and 2 teachers completed 1,247 push-ups/sit-ups to raise money for the Army Emergency Relief organization at our designated “home base,” Ft. Campbell.

So far, this incredible effort has raised over $2,100 — a new record! 🎉 The team’s goal is $5,000, and there’s still time to help support this cause.
If you or your business would like to donate, please contact Mrs. Kilby at 573-264-2131 ext. 413 or email kilbys@scr1.org.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support this meaningful event and our amazing students who always go above and beyond for our veterans! ❤️🤍💙 #SCWeR1

If you’ve walked the halls of Scott City Schools, then you know Mr. Stacy — a friendly face and a vital part of our custodial team. His hard work, positive spirit, and dedication have made a lasting impact on our school family.

After 35 years of service, Mr. Stacy will be retiring at the end of this school year. While it’s bittersweet to see him go, we couldn’t let his incredible contributions go uncelebrated. On Friday, we honored him with heartfelt thanks and well-deserved recognition.

Thank you, Mr. Stacy, for all you’ve done for our students, staff, and school community. We wish you the very best in your retirement! 💙💛 #SCWeR1
