I'm not as enthused as I was when I interviewed the school. The tuition is significatly lower than neighboring schools and overall they are a pretty good school. The teachers are very nice as well. But I also find that they lack the administrative staff needed to run this school and it's often the teacher's job to do these tasks which then causes last minute announcements. There isn't a principal to oversee potential issues that are typically beyond the scope of a teacher. And they do fundraisers weekly which if that be the case you could just as easily go to one of the pricier schools minus the headache. Again, they know what they are doing they just lack the 'know how' when it comes to beinig organizational leadership skills.
I can't say enough good things about Zion. The grade school teachers there are super responsive and willing to work with you on an individual plan for your student. The preschool teachers are very patient and can handle all ranges of children. My daughter has excelled ever since she started preschool there- is in 2nd grade now and reading at a 6th grade level. My son begs to go to preschool every day. We can't wait to put him in the FULL-DAY kindergarten next year! Would love to see more afterschool programs or sports, but they have gym and now art, so they are responding to the parents wishes!
