1-12
It's FRIDAY. It was a fantastic week of learning, investigating and building friendships in our room.

The BIG question is... HAVE YOU REGISTERED YOUR CHILD for ELP or Preschool for next year. I know opening remain. The question is, is it for the days you need, Perhaps, but I don't know.  At this time i am not aware of any days being closed but  again I don't know. My guess is if you register this weekend or early next week you are good to go. THAT WILL NOT BE THE CASE ON 1-21 or after. Last year the EARLY CHILDHOOD program was basically closed with in a hour of open enrollment.
If you would like to tour the entire campus KDG-8th grade tours will be held from 1-3pm on 1-21. This will give you a look at the quality education Zion has to offer. It will help you decide if Zion is the place long term for your child's education.
