Senior
Strong in Every Way Breakfast
The Rotary Club of Zionsville honored 20 Zionsville Community High School (ZCHS) seniors at a breakfast recognition program for demonstrating the personal assets of the ZCS Strong in Every Way ideals and embodying the Rotary Four-Way Test Tenets. The Strong in Every Way ideals are compassion, confidence, ethics, wellness, and determination. The Rotary Four-Way Test Tenets include: Is it the Truth? Is it Fair for All Concerned? Will it Build Good Will and Better Friendships? Will it be Beneficial to All Concerned?
Students were nominated for the award by ZCHS teachers. Each recognized student had the opportunity to honor an adult in the community as their most influential mentor.

Eagle Bike to School Day Spring 2024
This week, Eagle Elementary students celebrated "Bike to School Day" by riding to campus. They had the option to ride from home, join a "Biking Bus" with neighbors, or take part in a "Park and Ride" escorted by the police from Zionsville Christian Church (ZCC).
The Zionsville Eagle welcomed bike riders and all students to school when they arrived.

ZCS held its annual Preschool Unified Champions Game Day this week. Our youngest preschool champions brought everything they had and played their hearts out during one of our favorite days of the school year, Unified Champions Game Day.
On Friday, May 10, our K-8 champions will have their day at the Zionsville Middle School (ZMS) track. Another great day of fun ahead!
