Thanks to all who came out to our Community Connections event at North Middle. The student tour guides shared terrific insight with guests about how the construction projects have changed their school day. The biggest change? Students say that, now that they can fit their whole grade into the lunch room at the same time, they get more time with friends! Guests experienced the storm shelter, the new cafeteria, some nostalgia in the large gym, and great conversation with district leaders.
Mark your calendars for our event Oct. 7 at Pheasant Point. We'll hear from more student leaders, take a virtual tour of our storm shelter projects so far, and discuss what's next for Fort Zumwalt. Come for the tour, stay for the conversation!

Work has begun on a classroom addition at Westhoff Elementary that will double as a storm shelter that can house the entire school population during a weather event. It is the fifth such addition the district has constructed since voters approved a bond issue in 2022. Join us at one of our upcoming Community Connections events to experience similar completed projects and learn more about the district’s plans for the future. go.fzsd.us/Connections

From schedule pick-up to supply drop-off, thousands of families have smelled that back-to-school smell the past two weeks. You know the one. You remember it from when you were a kid. It's only possible thanks to the work of our custodial crew, who enjoyed an end-of-summer BBQ lunch together after polishing and shining all 27 schools in less than 11 weeks. Classes start Aug. 25. Wave to your custodian!

What a day!
Thanks to our amazing volunteers , the generous support of our community, and the partnership with our emergency responders, almost 1,000 students are equipped for the new school year! The third annual Back To School Bash was a huge success, providing families assistance with online forms, connections with community resources and backpacks full of supplies. They event got some time to check out a firetruck and ambulance. Remember: If you or someone you know needs support, connect with your school MHP.

Thanks to those who joined us at our Community Connections event at the Mike Clemens Center. Attendees appreciated the opportunity to see how facilities enhancements create opportunities for students, such as the Elevate Academy and Resource Center. The unique classroom environment that allows the MCC to serve students K - 12 and the specialized area for the Elevate post-secondary transition program are the result of voter support of Prop 4 in 2022. After experiencing the double-locked vestibule and the storm shelter, attendees joined the Superintendent and other district administrators for roundtable discussions. Remember, we have similar opportunities coming up Sept. 2 at North Middle and Oct. 7 at Pheasant Point. Search "Community Connections" on our website calendar.

Thank you to our community partners! Members of Harvester Christian Church were busy outside and inside at Dardenne Elementary, where they built brand new picnic tables for students, removed the old tables, tended to the garden and cleared 10 bags of yard waste. Inside they hung reminders of the 7 Habits for all who travel the halls. Thank you Harvester for partnering with Dardenne to create a great place to learn and grow. #FZCommunity

How do leaders spend their summer? Learning, of course! This group of FZSD administrators is part of the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education’s Missouri Pathway Aspiring Leaders (MoPAL). "The goal of MoPAL is to increase the number of qualified Special Education Directors in our state, inspiring them to be innovative leaders who guide their districts in the use of research- based approaches to supporting students with disabilities.” The three-year, no-cost program includes virtual learning, in-person experiences with fellow program students and coaching and mentoring modules focused on the many facets of special education, including law and finance. Year 3 finishes with a capstone project. Once they complete the program, DESE awards participants a Special Education Director certification. "I just love that all of us signed up for this independently and we are for sure the largest crew from a district in this cohort," one administrator said. "I think it shows a commitment to all kids and how the district is empowering people to continue to learn and grow for the benefit of kids." #FZEquipToExcel @MoEducation
