Swift Creek High School is an alternative high school in Afton, Wyoming as part of Lincoln County School District #2. Founded in 2001, Swift Creek High is based upon the motto “Dignity and Respect.” We believe in our students and believe in their success. As an alternative high school, a limited number of students are accepted to our school who are screened through our process of admittance, including an application, recommendation from current attending high school, and an interview. Students who attend Swift Creek are expected to pledge their determination as a “Creeker” to be prompt, prepared, polite, have a positive mental attitude, participate, and produce for the world around them.
SCHS is a school of choice, meaning that there is an application process to be admitted. There are two admittance periods, one in August at the beginning of the school year, and the second in January. Apply by clicking the link found on this page. Typically sophomores and older attend SCHS. The degree offered at Swift Creek is a traditional high school diploma, equivalent to any traditional high school. The only difference is that SCHS requires the credits only what the State of Wyoming requires for graduation. The Creek is built upon small class size, positive relationships with students and staff, dignity and respect, and a strong approach for hands-on learning.
