Did you know #FZSD is a #USDOL Certified Apprenticeship Program? (L to R) Dan Claypool, CEO of Merric Millwork and Seating, Andy McHaffie, East High teacher and FZ Apprenticeship Coordinator, Dr. Patrick Brown, FZ Executive Director of STEM & CTE, and Dan Fitter, CEO of Quest Specialty Products, introduced the St. Charles County Council to the program at their meeting last week.
Over the past few years, FZSD has placed machinists, welders and cabinet makers into positions with local manufacturers. There are also opportunities for Mechanical Engineering Technicians. Students earn an hourly wage and can earn high school credit while working the 2,000 hours to earn a nationally recognized USDOL Apprenticeship certificate. Those who complete the program also earn 45 hours of credit from St. Charles Community College.

Last summer East High Project Lead The Way Biomedical teacher Carrie Stowers connected with Kyle Gaines of the St. Charles County Ambulance District. Stowers’ fourth-year students were interested in deeper CPR training than what they completed in their health class.
“We worked together to find a solution that would fit within class hours. The kids did a class called Heart Code - Basic Life Support,” Gaines said. “They did some online learning through the American Heart Association, and then we did a skills practice and test out. They asked amazing questions.”
All of the students in both classes plan careers in healthcare. “As a class, they reflected on what was gained in addition to being CPR certified,” Stowers said. “They are more confident about their abilities to actually perform CPR/AED on a real human. They feel more prepared for college classes. The students were especially grateful to SCCAD EMS for their knowledge in answering many, many questions and showing them the techniques in person.”
FZE Craft Fair to benefit Grad Night is Saturday, October 22nd at 9am-3pm at East High.
