Our Trojan Outlook

Welcome to Zama American HS

It is our pleasure to welcome you to the official Zama American High School website. Our goal is to provide current and relevant information about our school to the military families we serve today and those we look forward to welcoming to our campus in the future. School is in recess: June 15-August 25.

We are very proud to announce that the AdvancED accreditation visit resulted in a recommendation to move our status to Fully Accredited! We expect the online report of the team’s findings and responses to the Accreditation Progress Report (APR) within 20 days. The AdvancED Accreditation Commission will then review and determine final status at the June 22 meeting. Here is the AdvancED APR briefing provided to the Zama Community. Congratulations Zama American High School! Go Trojans!

AVID Students visit Lakeland College in Tokyo!

The AVID students went to Lakeland College in Tokyo on May 23, 2013. The students were able to sit in on Algebra, Writing, U.S. History and Web Page classes. Lakeland College is U.S. Accredited and offers a Liberal Arts Academic Associates Degree. On a 3 semester a year program, students can earn an Associated Degree in 1 1/2 years. Lakeland would be a great start for those students whose parents will still be in Japan when their child goes to college.

Zama High School Celebrates AdvancED Accreditation Recommendation of Fully Accredited with Ice Cream and Dance During Seminar!

Photos and story by Charles Levie

During seminar on Friday, after the 20 minute Sustained Silent Reading (SSR), the administration made an announcement to the entire school. “All students were to report outside to the football field immediately.” The students looked puzzled as they exited the buildings. As they entered the field, they were greeted with loud music and ice cream! It was a school wide celebration for their hard work all year in preparation for the AdvancED visit earlier this week. The football field became a big block party… Some students played soccer, others sat down with friends on the grass and talked, but the center of attention was the impromptu dancing that occurred on the track. Students, teachers, administrators, counselors, and others danced in celebration! Well-deserved fun was had by all!

Thank you to everyone for their hard work this year! Go Trojans!
