ZWMS 8th Grade DC Trip Student Scholarship Fund Donation Request
- ZWMS 8th grade students (current 7th graders) have the opportunity to take a field trip to Washington DC. We don't want finances to be a reason a student doesn't get to tour and learn about our nation's capital. Please consider donating to our student scholarship fund. Any donation amount will add up to allow more students the chance to experience this educational opportunity.
- If you have questions please reach out to the 7th & 8th grade social studies teachers (Mrs. Behrens, Mrs. Peltier, Mr. Wojas, or Mr. Yovanovich), or Principal Shawn Wooden.
