Fort Zumwalt East High and Fort Zumwalt West High have been recognized as Project Lead The Way (PLTW) Distinguished Schools, among only 15 in Missouri.

Project Lead the Way is a national curriculum in place at all Fort Zumwalt high schools that offers students hands-on learning in biomedical science, engineering and computer science. Participating students have the opportunity to earn college credit while in high school.

PLTW recognizes Distinguished Schools for their commitment to increasing student access, engagement, and achievement in their PLTW programs. In all, seven of Missouri’s PLTW Distinguished Schools are in St. Charles County.
