After graduating from Virginia Tech, he became an instructor of English at Red Land High School in 1998 and has been there ever since.
Whether referred to as Mr. Slayton, Coach Slayton, or Coach Scott, he has worked with Red Land kids of all ages, both in the classroom and on the fields of competition. From Varsity to Elementary, PIAA State Playoffs and a District Championship, to Summer Camps and Tee-Ball, Scott has committed himself to helping Red Land kids excel both academically and athletically.
His fondness for the Red Land community is matched only by his love for baseball, specifically the New York Mets, the United States of America, and children. Scott so believes in the purity of childhood that he has been an active member of the St. Jude Children's Hospital running team, and has completed three marathons for St. Jude that have raised over $5000.
Together, he and his wife of 15 years, Kelly, have built their own "team" that provides each of them with their greatest joys in life.view less
