Re-Enrollment

Enrollment for the 2021-2022 School Year has begun, and early enrollment is more vital to this enrollment season than it has ever been before as our classes sizes are currently smaller than in previous years. If you know your child is returning to Zion next year, please complete re-enrollment as soon as possible to secure your child's place.

Enrollment for new families begins in February, so don't delay. Re-enrollment forms can be found in your Blackbaud account (more information below). It is a quick process that also requires payment of the registration fee.


Winter Weather Reminders

As we get further into the winter months, we want to take this time to remind you about the ways we notify our families about school and activity cancellations and late starts (found on page 20 in our Student and Parent Handbook on our website).

RE-enrollment is now open!!
Space is limited enroll today
For current Zion students, 2021-2022 school year registration is simple. A brief re-enrollment form has be assigned to your Blackbaud account on which you will indicate which children will be re-enrolling at Zion next year. For families returning to our preschool, you will use this form to also indicate which days of the week your child will attend.  

Re-enrollment is fully complete when the registration fee has been received. You will be prompted to make your registration payment using the re-enrollment form. Please note that registration fees increase as of April 1st.
