Zion Lutheran School BellevilleWell done, 7th graders, leading today’s Thanksgiving Chapel, and re-telling the story “You Are Special” by Max Lucado. It is a beautiful story that reminds us that we are precious to God just the way we are. It is through spending daily time with him that we begin to see ourselves through his eyes. Through flaws and mistakes, God loves us no matter what!

Sometimes a story about a party is all the inspiration you need to create your own party in preschool. Today, our 4-year old preschoolers, after reading “Hooray, A Piñata”, made their own friendship party in the home living center. The little ones decided what was needed and then worked together to make invitations, party hats, decorations and more. It ended with the big celebration!
WOW experiences are all a part of what we do in preschool at ZLS. Here, our preschool 3 year olds got to enjoy mixing, stirring and baking pancakes!
Our school’s monthly newsletter – Lion’s Roar – is now available. Be sure to read front to back as there is great information on upcoming events, school happenings, a special retirement and a beautiful message on faith and trust from our principal, Mrs. Baron. Enjoy
It’s a tradition for our 3rd and 4th graders – Metro East Lutheran High School Field Day. Our students participated in fun activities throughout the day, competing with and against each other and other students from Lutheran elementary schools in the Metro East.
