Scottsburg MS parent-teacher conferences will be held from 3:15 p.m. - 6:15 p.m. on Monday, September 26th and Wednesday, September 28th.

These are open to anyone who would like to meet with their child's teachers.

Teachers may also reach out to some parents to set up a conference as needed.

During the activity, students experienced digging for artifacts, examining masks, and reviewing documents.

Scottsburg MS welcomed five teachers to our faculty for the 2022-2023 school year.

Hi my name is Jacob Ward. This is my first year teaching and I am so excited to a part of Scott County School District 2! I grew up in a small town similar to Scottsburg in Ohio County Kentucky. I graduated from Western Kentucky University this past year with a Bachelor of Arts in Music Education.

My favorite thing to do is to teach and make music! But when I’m not doing that I also enjoy whitewater rafting and kayaking, working on computers, and traveling.

The Scottsburg MS student handbook contains some significant updates for the 2022-2023 school year. The most significant changes took place in the discipline section.

Here are the highlights of three changes that will impact the largest number of students:

• Cell phones are still not allowed to be used during the school day here at SMS. Phones are expected to be turned off and stored in lockers. Students who are carrying a cell phone or using a cell phone during the school day are in violation. The consequences for each situation are outlined in the handbook.

• Second is illegal substances. This year students who have illegal substances and/or paraphernalia (most common examples are vapes, cigarettes, or alcohol) will be recommended for expulsion on the first offense.

• In an attempt to be more aligned with the high school discipline policy, we will be following a progressive discipline approach. This means that when a student commits the same offense multiple times, the discipline will get progressively more serious. Each example is outlined in the doc that is provided by clicking on the picture above or via the link below.

We encourage you to read the handbook with your child(ren) and to contact us with any questions you may have.

We are looking forward to working with our students and their parents throughout the upcoming school year.
