#FZSupt sits down for an update on student service projects across the district, HVAC projects recently approved by the Board and an overview of a #STEAM presentation at the monthly Board meeting.

#FZSD has a long tradition of serving #FZCommunity and a long tradition of honoring those who have served. Get a taste of the unique tradition East High and its feeder school, DuBray Middle, are building, have joined forces to honor those who serve. “Giving back can look many different ways,” says DuBray Middle Principal Dr. Jennifer Griffith. Check in on just a few of the ways our students and staff join forces to give back. “Fort Zumwalt has done a really good job of creating a culture that shows in every way, shape or form that we honor service and that we lead with service,” says East High Principal Ashlee Vaughn.

In his monthly update, #FZSupt Dr. DuBray celebrates the many community events taking place across the district and

Elementary Technology classes have been a part of the Fort Zumwalt curriculum since 2016. In that short period of time, what began as dedicated time to develop students’ technical skills has evolved into a commitment to collaboration and creativity. Learn more about the skills students are taking to middle school that will carry them through to career in this FORTiTUDE podcast.

Tune in as #FZSupt shares some history on the Fort Zumwalt Transportation Department, recently recognized for the 20th consecutive year with the Highway Patrol's Fleet Excellence Award, which is only awarded to those scoring 90 percent of better on the annual safety inspection. Did you know FZSD's team of six mechanics has kept our buses at 98 - 100% for more than 10 years?

Pushing for Positive Peer Influence has long been at the center of all we do in FZSD. The League of Leaders connects high school with elementary school students reinforcing the positive and discovering that influence goes both ways. It's the latest effort in a long commitment to empowering student leadership.

#FZSupt Dr. Bernie DuBray catches us up on projects and FZ Prop 4, before sharing a bit about his Last First Day of School and his traditional tour of the district.
