It was a time to celebrate hard work and presence today in our chapel service as first quarter attendance and academic honor awards were presented. Well done, students. Keep up the good work!







“Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.” Hebrews 12:1 – Beautiful weather, lots of smiles, determined faces, wonderful volunteers, crazy costumes; just a few of the many things, big and small, at ZLS today at our Lions Roar Fun Run. A huge thank you to everyone that helped in some way as we continue to raise funds for the air conditioning unit in our gym.


Hello Zion Families! Our Lion’s Roar Fun Run is coming up next week on October 30th!
Keep collecting those pledges! Your kids will be participating in the run to help raise money for much needed air conditioning in the gym. Our goal is $25,000 and if every kid raises $100 we will reach this goal!!
Please turn in pledge forms and money to your child’s teacher by November 7th, to ensure that they will receive their incentives. Pledges and money can be collected before and after the run as long as they are turned in by November 7th.
