Purpose Statement The goal of Zion Lutheran School is to help preschool students develop a relationship with Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Although much time is spent on spiritual and academic growth, significant emphasis is placed on the socialization of children. Spiritual Life Religion: With Faith Alive, children learn of God's love for them through the use of puppets, art, stories, music, play dough and discussions. Chapel: Students gather together each week for a time of worship that includes prayer, music, outreach opportunities and age appropriate talks. Parents are welcome to join us.
