AC Bulldog Family,

 
Join us in congratulating one of our distinguished Appleton City Elementary teachers, Shelly Scotten, on her outstanding accomplishment! 

On September 29th, Mrs. Scotten was inducted into the Hendrix College Hall of Honor for both her record as a soccer player and her academic success.

 
"Originally from Rogers, Arkansas, Shelly Peterson Scotten arrived at Hendrix College after spending her freshman year at Middlebury College. A three-time team captain and two-time Most Valuable Player for the women’s soccer program, she earned All-South Region and All Conference honors after a stellar junior season, and currently ranks fourth in program history for assists per game in a single season after averaging 0.33 assists in 12 games that year.

Her abilities in the classroom matched her abilities on the pitch, as she was a four-time Academic All-Conference selection and graduated summa cum laude with a B.A. in Psychology and a minor in Elementary Education. During her time at Hendrix, Peterson Scotten was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Pi Lambda Theta, and Psi Chi, and served as Sports Editor and Senior Editor for the Troubadour from 1999-2001. She was awarded the Ruby Carroll Hughes Children’s Literature Award (2001) and the Opal P. Middleton Elementary Education Award in 2002. Upon graduation, she was named the recipient of the Carl Babcock Award for Leadership in Athletics.

Peterson Scotten now resides in Appleton City, Missouri, with her husband, Doug, and their two sons, Colt and Weston." https://l.facebook.com/l.php...
