Parent Educators have screening times available the week of July 14 at the Early Childhood Center. If you live in Fort Zumwalt School District and your child will be 5 years old on or before July 31, it's time to get ready for Kindergarten! https://bit.ly/4k8fgqy

The only thing hotter than the weather? The STEAM rising from our elementary camps! Our rising 5th graders are already proving that they are future engineers and storytellers, building robots for complex tasks and bringing stop-motion animation to life. Sparking creativity one summer camp at a time. #FZEquipToExcel 📸SPfanstiel

It was a great day to go back to school! Thanks to the student leaders and the award winning teachers who made today's O'Fallon Chamber monthly luncheon at North High such a success. Students jumped in to lead the meeting and, after lunch served by FZ Student Nutrition Services, attendees went to class: Elementary technology, middle school math and STEAM & CTE (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math and Career Technical Education. The afternoon of hands-on learning offered lots of insight on the soft skills students practice every day. Building the future work force with real world encounters today. #FZEquipToExcel

"I thought is was summer break. Why do your campuses seem so busy?" We get this question a lot and the answer is easy: Leaders Never Stop Learning! Teachers, staff and students are sharpening reading and math skills and discovering robotics, coding and bio sciences - and with a break in the rain, even the teachers are enjoying some recess!

May is for celebrating! As we close in on a few big celebrations (It's graduation weekend!), we pause with Assistant Superintendent Jennifer Waters to take in just a few of the quieter celebrations shared on Hawthorn Elementary's Happy Board. Staff and students were asked: "What happened in May at Hawthorn that made you smile?" They responded with everything from birthdays to plants starting to grow to one Post-it that reads "This bulletin board! 😃" Taking it all in as as students arrived for school, Waters looked at a Kindergarten teacher and said, "What a great way to start the day!"
