Honoring Mr. Dan Scott
Today, we celebrate a truly exceptional individual — Mr. Dan Scott — whose unwavering generosity, time, and heart have made a lasting impact on our school community.
From countless hours of hands-on dedication to generous contributions by both himself and family, Dan has been more than a supporter — he’s been a pillar of strength and compassion. His commitment reminds us that real change starts with heart, and his legacy will continue to inspire for years to come.

Congratulations to Mrs. Lisa Hall — SWC Teacher of the Year!
Golden City R-III is beyond proud to recognize Mrs. Hall for her extraordinary dedication, passion, and impact in the classroom. Her commitment to her students goes far beyond the lesson plan — she builds confidence, and makes every student feel seen and valued.
Mrs. Hall, your compassion, and tireless work truly set you apart. You are more than a teacher — you are a mentor.
Thank you for making a difference every single day!

Our first grade class is learning how to churn butter just like our ancestors did long ago! The students took turns churching until it turned into fresh butter. After all their hard work, they got to enjoy the delicious results by making grilled cheese sandwiches with the butter they made themselves! It was a fun and tasty way to connect with history!
