WOW Experience in ZLS Preschool

Our preschool is filled with WOW Experiences – opportunities for parents, grandparents and loved ones to come to our school and teach our preschoolers something new that goes along with the curriculum they are studying.  Here, one of our preschool families (dad and grandpa) who are plumbers, came by with a backhoe. The kids loved it!

Academics

We strive to help students develop critical minds and a life-long love of learning that guides choices and can transform lives.

Character

Our focus on individual strengths ignites curiosity, creativity, grit and resilience in our students.

Faith

We are committed to each and every child growing their faith and love of God, and our students emerge ready to serve and succeed with Christ as their compass.
