Come out to the showcase of schools tomorrow!

Thank you to the ZT families that were able to come out to family bedtime story night.










Come to Zachary Taylor tonight from 5 to 7 for our fun family night at the book fair! You can bring a gently used book from home to swap with classmates, enjoy some cookies and hot chocolate, and shop the book fair. PJs are encouraged!

🌟 SPOTLIGHT ON STUDENT RELATIONS 🌟 | “It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish.”
Inside JCPS Student Relations, compassion and second chances drive the work. Meet the team helping students and families navigate tough transitions—and reminding them that one setback doesn’t define their story. 💙
