Our Zilker community came together for a very special dedication ceremony for our new bike rack in honor of Cile Steward. 💜🕊️

This beautiful functional art was built by and made possible by generous donations.

Thank you to all who helped organize this meaningful ceremony and those who have worked to ensure that Cile will always be remembered on our campus. We love you, Stewards.

To culminate our reading of Dogtown for One School, One Book and demonstrate empathy, Zilker Panthers took on a schoolwide service project with the help of kinder parent and longtime Austin Animal Center volunteer, Jenn Evans. The librarian, counselors, classroom teachers, parent volunteers, and community came together to make grade level projects that matched the current needs of the shelter this holiday season.

No cooking tonight! Let’s go to and support our Zilker Panther community! Tag a friend and see you there!

We had so much fun at Holiday Lights Around the World! Our holiday cultural celebration included food, crafts and singing.

Thanks to everyone who joined us and to all our volunteers who made the night a success! And a big THANK YOU to Ms. Hughes and the Panther Choir!
