ZLS Christmas Extravaganza
A school-wide celebration for the birth of our Savior
Save the Date
Friday, December 10th, 2021
ZLS families,
Our entire student body is preparing to share with you the story of our Savior’s birth (and a few other fun Christmas themes) through music, stories, and scripture, and we are excited to invite families to our campus, in-person, to enjoy their hard work and celebrate Jesus together.
General Information
Limits for attendance - This year, we ask that ONLY immediate family (parents/guardians and siblings) attend the event in person.
Live Streaming - The event will be streamed live on our church’s YouTube channel and posted on both the School’s and Church’s YouTube channels for later viewing by families who could not attend in person.
Times below are approximate. Our staff communicates with each other across campus to ensure we don’t start the next event without providing ample “travel time” for families of multiple children.
Parking is limited. We strongly encourage carpooling however you can. We will have parking lot attendants at the Carlyle entrance to assist with parking in the upper lot.
