Students created a vibrant field of red poppies to honor our Veterans. Using gesture drawing techniques, they explored a range of light and dark values to bring depth and movement to each flower. The artwork reflects both gratitude and remembrance through expressive line work and thoughtful use of color and shading.
We are thankful for our community, a place that supports teaching, learning and each other! Together our students collect funds and food to support local families. With volunteers from across the county, our high school students packed holiday meals for delivery. Building the workforce of the future one community project at a time.

Meet Bob and Andy, who represent all of the Veterans we honor today.
Bob and Andy were honored to lead students at Twin Chimneys Elementary in the Pledge of Allegiance on the Navy's birthday last month.
Our veterans continue to serve us in every corner of our community: on fire departments and police departments; in offices and hospitals; and in our Fort Zumwalt schools.
Thank you for your continued service and for sharing your leadership skills with our students.

Connecting with our community is a priority, which is why twice each year we host a luncheon for residents of our district who are older than 55. We call it Soup’s On! Our most recent event was our largest yet.

Guests pre-register by calling District Office and are treated to lunch from our Student Nutrition Services Department. Chef Jeff did not disappoint, and it was the perfect day for a bowl of chili. Superintendent, Dr. Henry St. Pierre was on hand to visit with guests one-on-one and then shared an update on our construction, maintenance and renovations program.

“I look at these schools and I see your investment,” Dr. St. Pierre told the group, as many nodded in agreement. “We pride ourselves on treating each of these properties as we do our own homes. But, when you’re talking about more than 30 properties, that takes a lot for us to keep up.”

After a Q&A, guests heard about other ways to be involved with their schools, including working as substitute custodians. Several signed up to learn more after hearing a shift could be as little as two hours, gain them some pocket money and fill an important gap for the custodial team, who ensures our schools are safe, welcoming places to learn.

Our second event for this school year is scheduled for April 2. Learn more in the Events section of our website.
