Ross County Community Action Meal Schedule.
The Zane Trace 5th-12th Grade Band will be washing cars by Steak 'n' Shake on Saturday, June 6th from 10am-2pm to raise money to replace the current uniforms. Swing by and spread the word.
If you would like to help, but aren't able to make it, we have a link for anyone to make a direct donation to the uniform fund.

You can donate any custom amount and tips are not mandatory. There are no hidden fees or percentages taken by the company. This account was setup solely for uniform fund donations. The original goal was to raise about $35,000 over a year ago. Through a lot of hard work and the help of the ZT community and beyond, we are less than $10,000 from that goal now. Every little bit helps! Thank you so much!
"How 'Bout That Band?!"

Today, we are celebrating Deputy Thomas! We are so thankful for everything he does to keep our school safe, support our students and staff, and bring positivity to our building each and every day. Deputy Thomas is an important part of our Zane Trace family, and we appreciate his kindness, leadership, and dedication to our school community.

Thank you ZT School Lunch Heroes!
