Dalton Scott Balances Sports and School at Southwestern High School

PIASA - Dalton Scott knows exactly what he wants after high school.

For his dedication, Dalton Scott is a Student of the Month for Southwestern High School.

Scott, a senior, has played baseball through the school district for the past six years. He also recently joined the golf team.

It takes a lot of effort to balance academics and athletics, but Scott makes this look easy. He works hard in everything he does and pushes to be the best version of himself at every game and practice.

Outside of school, Scott holds down a part-time job. He loves playing pickleball and often spends his weekends at the golf course, playing for fun. He plays the guitar in his downtime.

He is excited about the prospect of life after graduation. Just like they do when he plays his sports, his teachers and loved ones will be rooting for him as he takes this next step.

“I’m going to go to LC to be an electrician and hopefully travel a lot,” Scott shared.

Congratulations to Dalton for this recognition from Southwestern High School!
