ZWest Car Rider Alert:
- The most recent update about construction on Oak Street/State Road 334 is that it will be complete on Monday, September 11th. Due to the continuing construction, we have all been moving through town and managing our transportation around the detours. Since ZWest is on that detour route, we recognize that school car-rider traffic will add complexity to the situation. Because of that, ZWest has met with our Law Enforcement partners to develop a plan for a smooth drop off/pick up experience for our students and families. Car Riders will notice additional Law Enforcement Officers on site helping with traffic flow.
- If you choose to drive students to school, please be prepared to follow the directions of our Law Enforcement partners. Patience and flexibility will be key for all of us as we manage this situation. Thank you!
The enrollment period to insure your ZCS owned device ends September 14th so make sure to sign up as soon as possible. Computer parts continue to rise in price and accidents happen. You can insure the $506 valued device for just $59.00 for the entire school year. This covers all accidental damage, no deductibles, and unlimited claims.
