Zachary Ricardo Lewis
Welcome to J.R. Fugett Middle School, where high expectations, meaningful relationships, and a strong sense of community come together to ensure success for every student. I am honored and excited to partner with our students, staff, and families as we learn, grow, and achieve together.
At FMS, we are grounded in our shared vision of building a strong and connected learning community where all students thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. In alignment with the WCASD Portrait of a Graduate mission, we are committed to developing students who are thoughtful communicators, resilient problem solvers, collaborative leaders, and responsible citizens prepared for success in school and beyond.
Our work centers around three key priorities:
Supportive School Culture: We are committed to fostering a safe, structured, respectful, and inclusive environment where students are empowered to demonstrate our iCARE values of Integrity, Care, Acceptance, Respect, and Equity each day.
High Impact Teaching and Learning: We will provide rigorous, engaging, and responsive instruction in every classroom through high expectations, meaningful learning experiences, and a commitment to continuous student growth and achievement.
Strong & Connected Community: We believe strong partnerships among students, staff, and families are essential to student success. Together, we will continue building a community rooted in belonging, accountability, collaboration, and shared responsibility.
We proudly embrace our school mantra: One Pack. One Purpose. One Fugett. This mantra reflects our collective commitment to supporting one another, upholding high standards, and ensuring every student feels connected, challenged, and valued as a member of our school community.
Thank you for your partnership, trust, and continued support. Together, we will make this a school year filled with growth, celebration, achievement, and opportunities for every child to thrive.
With gratitude,
Zak Lewis, Principal
