Dear Parents,
“Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His mercy endures forever.” I Chronicles 16:34
Thank you for attending the parent meeting last week Wednesday! It was truly a blessing to be able to meet and talk together about your children in our classroom this year! I especially appreciate your willingness to volunteer and assist in so many different ways! Thank you for your continued prayers and support as we enter our first 5-day week of school, partnering together both at home and at school!
Here are a few notes to remember this week!
1. Your child was given a “Z-Pass” last week which should be attached to their backpack or bag. Zeeland Public School wants all students to have a Z-Pass, even if they do not ride this bus to and from school. All students need a pass who could potentially ride a bus, and that includes field trips, Tulip Time, and other events. So, all of our students need a Z-Pass attached to their backpacks so it’s with them all the time. Thanks for your support in this new safety measure!
2. Field Trips:
Tuesday, September 11- 4th Grade to the Outdoor Discovery Center- 8:40a.m.-3:00p.m.
Friday, September 21- 5th Grade field trip- details TBA
Tuesday the 4th grade students are headed to the Outdoor Discovery Center, south of Holland. We will be leaving ZCS at 9:00 and returning around 3:00. The forecast looks perfect for a day of exploring God’s world with its many habitats and animals that live in them. Please be sure to send a sack lunch with your child that day.
3. Reminder: If you have not yet sent in your child’s activity fee, please do so this week. Checks may be made out to Zeeland Christian School.
1st-$25
2nd-$20
3rd-$20
4th- $22
5th-$10
4. During these days that can be quite hot yet, please send a water bottle to school with your child. Also, if your child has PE on a “school” day, please send PE shoes to school.
5. Paperwork- remember to send back any paperwork that needs to be returned- technology forms, volunteer forms, etc.
6. Our Bible memory which will be due on September 20 is straight from our lessons from the book of James:
“My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone
should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow
to become angry, for man’s anger does not bring
about the righteous life that God desires.”
James 1:19-20
7. Please continue to be in prayer for God’s continued protection and His blessing on Zeeland Christian, the students and their families, as well as teachers and staff.
8. Please note a date change on the ZCS calendar: Monday, March 4 will be a day off and Tuesday, March 5 we will be in session.
6. Dates to Remember:
Sept. 10 Threeschool/preschool/young fives begin
Sept. 12 Middle school parent information meeting
Sept. 12 Parents of 7th/8th grade athletes meeting
Sept. 22 Craft show
Sept. 26-28 Seventh grade Discovery Camp

Mrs. Walters
