Get to Know Your Admin: Scott A. Morehouse Principal, Hutto Elementary School With 12 years of dedicated service in Decatur County Schools, Scott A. Morehouse leads Hutto Elementary with a deep commitment to student success, safety, and growth. As principal, he oversees the school’s operations and works closely with teachers to ensure high-quality instruction, data-driven decision-making, and an environment where every child can thrive. His leadership extends beyond academics—he builds strong relationships with families and the community to create a culture of support and achievement. Mr. Morehouse was inspired to enter education by a calling to lead, serve, and make a lasting impact on students’ lives. His journey began teaching Air Force JROTC and coaching wrestling, where he instilled discipline, leadership, and perseverance in his students. Later, he led CTAE, Fine Arts, and Guidance, helping students discover their passions and prepare for their future. Now, as an elementary principal, he takes pride in building strong foundations and empowering teachers and students alike. For Mr. Morehouse, the most rewarding part of his work is witnessing the growth of students—academically, socially, and emotionally. “Watching students gain confidence, overcome challenges, and celebrate their successes is incredibly fulfilling,” he shares. He also finds great joy in supporting and motivating his staff to reach their full potential.

🎉 Our top 20 students who reached their Literacy Choice Board goals enjoyed a special Literacy Leader event in the Media Hub! 📚 Mrs. Palmer read Enemy Pie and sparked a great discussion about what makes a friend vs. an enemy. Students picked a friend trait they want to be known for and designed 3D bookmarks with their chosen words—printed right on our 3D printers as keepsakes! 🖨️✨ While waiting, Mrs. Zock introduced them to infographics and how to showcase their reading data visually. What a fun and inspiring day of learning! 🌟

It's all about MANUFACTURING at Hutto Elementary this week as students dig deeper into the Engineering Design Process and how things are made. From design and prototypes to testing and iterations, these students are hands on every day in their WOZ ED STEM PATHWAYS.

4th & 5th grade students have been practicing the design process by creating blueprints of robotic inventions and then testing them in the testing zone to identify enhancements and improve their prototypes.

3rd Grade students have been researching plants and animals from different biomes and designing 3D models of them in Tinkercad to print on the Flash Forg 3D printer.
