Hello! I’m Scott Mathews, the
Flagship Coordinator at Big Sky High School. A little about
myself: I grew up in Mahtomedi, Minnesota, a suburb of St.
Paul. Being at Big Sky has provided me with a feeling of déjà vu as
my high school looked very similar and we too were blue and gold
with the 'M' logo...in some ways, I feel like a freshman all over
again. After graduating from high school, I escaped the Minnesota
winters by attending the University of Kansas (Go Jayhawks). I
graduated with a degree in film and moved to New York City where I
worked in the music industry doing artist management and consulting
for Polygram Records for five years.
In 1995, I decided to drop
everything and move to Missoula, a city I had great memories of from
the summer vacations of my youth, and to be closer to my family. My
first experience with the Flagship Program came as a volunteer in
1997. I taught a student at C.S. Porter to play electric guitar and
before our time together was over, he was a better guitar player
than I was. When an opportunity came along to work for the Flagship
Program full-time, I was excited to join the team.
If you have a skill that you think the students at
Big Sky could benefit from, you should think about volunteering with
us. In the time I’ve been here at Big Sky, I’ve enjoyed the
opportunity to work with its talented students and staff. If you’re
a student, keep an eye out for the activities we’re offering and if
you’re a parent and would like to volunteer your talent, I’d like to
talk to you about it!
