PPE's DARE Officer Goewert in action, empowering our 5th graders through the D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) Program. He is teaching students about making safe, responsible choices and building a brighter, drug-free future. Our 5th graders will be graduating from the DARE Program next week! Thank you for your service, Officer Goewert!
Last week our Drama Club performed Charlie & The Chocolate Factory & The Wizard of Oz on the Fort Zumwalt West High stage. The performances were cute and funny and the students did an outstanding job playing their character.
Some of the Fort Zumwalt West League of Leaders (that represent the 7 habits) came out to play with some of our students at recess. This was in between recesses with our DARE Officer, Mr. Goewert.
Come out to see our 2nd graders perform in their musical, "Too Much Noise" on Tuesday, April 15 at 6:30pm at Fort Zumwalt West High School.
