Whether it’s playing sports or teaching physical education, it’s undeniable, Scott Ellis’ passion lies in athletics. This year Ellis has joined the Iola school district as new health teacher for Iola’s middle and high schools and Lincoln Elementary. 

Ellis, who grew up in Humboldt, played as many sports in school as he could get his hands on — baseball, basketball and football, he said. It was during the countless hours spent in games and practices where he realized it was his passion. 

Instead of going for a career in professional sports, he decided he wanted to give back to the county he grew up in and pursued a job in teaching.
