The new school year is almost here!

In just three weeks, we'll kick off the 2026–27 school year with our Open House on Tuesday, August 11, from 5:00–7:00 p.m.

We are excited to welcome both returning and new families to Zion Classical Academy. This year brings several exciting updates, including the return of Miss Karen Piel, who will be teaching our 4th grade class. We are delighted to welcome her back to the ZCA family!

As you visit during Open House, you'll also notice a number of improvements throughout the building, along with new curriculum, updated classrooms, and other enhancements as we prepare for another year of pursuing Truth, Wisdom, and Virtue together.
