The Zion girls cross country team scored another win on Thursday, October 2, 2025 at the Gothenburg Invite! Congratulations girls! Here's what Coach Torres had to say: "This is legitimately the hardest meet outside of the state meet with 505 total runners, with 101 girls in the middle school competition and from top conference and district schools. It was a difficult, hilly course on a hot day - and the girls are champions! All five placed in the top 25, with 3 in the top 15. "
Well done girls! We're proud of you! Soli Deo Gloria! To God be the Glory!

On Wednesday, September 17 the whole school attended an assembly on Emergency situations. Officer Schwarz started the assembly by introducing us to his Police K9, Kuba. We learned how Kuba and Officer Schwarz work together to keep our community safe. Next, Mrs. Marquardt taught us what action steps students can take in case of an emergency such as fire, tornado, an intruder or a dog on the playground. Our school has worked diligently to learn these protocols and visuals that are used in every school in our community.
Thank you to the Kearney Police Department for their dedication to keeping our schools safe and informed.

We are a week away from the first day of school! Due to field turf installation, there will be no back-to-school night. We will have a special night to celebrate once it has been installed. The school will be open from 9-4 next Tuesday. Families are welcome to bring in children to tour and drop off school supplies if desired. It'll be strange to start without the usual festivities, but it'll be worth the wait!
