Cerro Coso welcomes new Custodian Everett Scott to the team that works tirelessly to ensure the facilities support the mission of the college.

Scott, a native of Ridgecrest, is a 2002 graduate of Burroughs High School and a former explosives technician. He most recently worked out of Mojave as a blaster for numerous mines, quarries, and construction sites. His current assignment is the Child Development Center and gymnasium, and Scott says he feels very fortunate to have been selected to serve in such an essential capacity.

Scott knows how important the working environment is to the health and well-being of our students and staff because his son Christien is a full-time student at the college and his granddaughter Aleah (3) attends the Child Development Center. Scott and his wife Shawna have two children: Christien and Alissa and two granddaughters Marlee (4 months) and Aleah (3). He enjoys a good movie including romantic comedies and his favorite film is Rocky. There is just something about Rocky’s unbreakable human spirit, determination, and willingness to do whatever it takes to make his dream a reality that makes this movie one of Scott’s favorites.

From the ocean to the mountains, Scott and his family genuinely love the outdoor and nature. WELCOME Everett!
