Dear Zion Families, 

I hope your long weekend was enjoyable and even restful. Even though we’re a few weeks into the school year already, it still seems like Labor Day is the “official” end of Summer, doesn’t it. No worries though as September is still plenty busy with school activities and more! As the seasons change, it’s always good to remember God’s Word that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” (Hebrews 13:8). The world around us changes; the seasons change; our lives change; time passes; our kids grow. Yet in all that, God’s love for us in His Son Jesus is the same. Unwavering. Unchanging. Always constant. Always unconditional. Jesus is the unchangeable proof that God loves us! That’s what we tell our students every day as they learn and grow. Thank you for being a part fo the Zion family! Read on for important information for the weeks coming up!

In Christ,
Pastor Buetow

SYMPTOMS AND SICK DAYS

Please continue to be alert for the following: Loss of taste/smell, Fever, Cough, shortness of breath/difficulty breathing, chills, headache, nausea/vomiting, congestion/runny nose, sore throat, diarrhea, body/muscle aches, fatigue, or abdominal pain. 

If your child has ANY of those symptoms, please keep them home until they have been SYMPTOM FREE FOR 24 HOURS. That usually means an extra day away from school beyond the day they are feeling better. If in doubt, keep your child at home, notify the Office, and consult your doctor. Thank you for your extra vigilance and cooperation in keeping illness out of school! 

QUARANTINE GUIDELINES: Be aware that if a family member is exposed to Covid, your child will have to observe a 14 day quarantine from the time of the test results.
