ZION LION DAY (GRADES 1-8)
Zion Lion Days are scheduled for students applying to 1st through 8th grades. Applicants will spend a full school day getting to know the students in their grade and the Zion school environment by shadowing a classroom buddy. Applicants will also complete a Math and Reading assessment during their Zion Lion Day. Assessments aid in determining your child's academic placement at Zion.
Kindergarten applicants will complete a Kindergarten readiness assessment as part of the Kindergarten application process. This will be scheduled after all Kindergarten application materials are received. We take pride in making the assessment fun for the students.
