About Scott County School District

Description provided by the district or community 鈥� not part of the NCES dataset.

The Scott County School District believes that all children can learn, if given an opportunity, in an atmosphere conducive to learning, provided the proper assistance is given under the direction of well-trained and well-equipped, caring professionals. We believe that it is the responsibility of educators to meet the needs of every student to the greatest degree possible. Because we believe that all children can learn, we envision that the use of technology will enhance the learning experience of each child. Using technology is a basic skill that will help students become life-long learners capable of critical thinking and problem solving. Life-long learners will have access to a technology rich environment, which will allow them to develop their maximum potential for leading productive and fulfilling lives in a complex and changing society.
