We are excited to welcome all our K-8 students for our first day of school tomorrow. To celebrate the first day of school, Tropical Sno will be at the Zion parking lot from 11:15-12:30 on Wednesday the 13th. One size available for $5. Cash only.

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!

Zion apparel is now available to order. Both online stores close on August 22nd.
