Mike Scott

Thank you Coach Mike Scott!

Thank you to Coach Mike Scott! After 14 years Coach Scott has stepped down as the head football at Annandale High School. Mike is a 1988 graduate of Annandale. Mike played football and tennis during his time at Annandale. After graduating, Mike attended the University of Tennessee and returned to Annandale after graduation.

Mike began his coaching career at Annandale in 1996 as an assistant football coach, a position that he held until being named head football coach in 2010. Over the years Mike has coached Indoor Track, Outdoor Track, and Tennis. 

Coach Scott's teams and athletes have embodied his mentality of grit, hard work, and accountability. He is a coach that cares for all of his student-athletes on and off the field. His passion for the game of football is the reason many of his former players are a part of his coaching staff. Coach Scott will continue to teach Health and Physical Education at Annandale.

Thank you Coach Scott for your commitment and dedication to Annandale High School!

Dance Team Fundraiser

The dance team needs your support! Grab a tote bag (or just contribute a donation) by following this link: Fundraising Link

The tote bag was designed by current sophomore dancer (and artist) Madison Mueller and it includes our dance team motto, "Every move is a moment!"

After competing for the first time this past season, Annandale Dance Team has even bigger ambitions this year .. Including going to dance camp for the first time this summer, along with more local competitions. Your contributions will go towards dance camp and competition fees, along with uniforms and dance gear. It also ensures that costs to dancers remain at a minimum.

We are going into our 3rd year as a team, so we are still young - which means we need all of the fundraising support we can get. Thank you for your support! GO ATOMS!
