After graduating from Christiansburg High School, Scott Habeeb began his college career at Wake Forest University. He did pretty well there grade-wise, but was incredibly lonely for his beautiful high school sweetheart. So after his sophomore year, he asked the incredibly wonderful, lovely, and intelligent Julie Poff (man, he hopes she's reading this) to be his wife. They got married and Scott transferred to her school - Virginia Tech - where he soon became a rabid Hokie fan.

Being married seemed to help Scott's studies. With Julie making sure he worked hard, Scott graduated Summa Cum Laude from Virginia Tech in 1997 with a Bachelor of Arts in History. Along with being inducted into the Phi Beta Kappa honor society, Scott was also the valedictorian of Virginia Tech's History Department and was selected as the Outstanding Senior of the Year for the College of Arts and Sciences. In the fall of 1997, Scott completed work on his Master's of Arts in Curriculum and Instruction, also at Virginia Tech.

In 1997, Scott began his teaching career as a ninth grade World History at Salem High School  in Salem, Virginia, where he also coached Girls Tennis and Middle School Football. In 2004, Scott made a move to the "dark side of the force" and became an assistant principal at Salem High. In 2013, Scott was appointed to serve as principal of Salem High School.


Scott regularly speaks at schools, school divisions, and conferences across the country.  Most commonly, he speaks about Freshman Transition, Formative Assessment, Standards Based Learning, and his favorite topic, Going Beyond the Content to inspire and motivate students.  

Scott is the author or co-author of several articles on Freshman Transition and Assessment Practices, as well as the co-author of The Ninth Grade Opportunity: Transforming Schools from the Bottom Up.

Scott's greatest accomplisment to date is the fact that he somehow convinced Julie to marry him. This marriage has led to 4 wonderful children (Kaitlin, Kelsey, McKenna, and Matthew), a son-in-law (Justin), a super cool grandson (Beckett), and a beautiful granddaughter (Jane)! Scott's totally unbiased view is that they are the most phenomenal people in the entire world!
