WOW I can't believe that the 2023-24 school year has come to an end! This year flew by! Final report cards and next year teacher letters will be mailed out by mid-week, so watch your mailboxes! The last Lost & Found for the year will be posted on Facebook next week. Returning student update email will go out to families after July 4th, please keep an eye out for that communication. If you have any questions or changes of address, email, or phone numbers please contact our Administration Building at 616-784-2511 Monday - Thursday 8am-4pm.
We had a very busy end of the year at Zinser - Field Day was held last Friday, many field trips, a great ceremony for our 5th grade graduates, and we wrapped it up with our Flag Lowering Ceremony. We will miss them and wish them the best as they move up to Middle School! We had two retirees from Zinser- Lisa Wisneski our Resource Room Teacher & Deb Schweitzer our Librarian. They will be greatly missed, but deserve much rest and relaxation!
Have a great Summer, see you in September,

TRANSPORTATION BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL CAREOur Personal Mastery educational experience has redefined education and has gained attention around the state and nation. Personal Mastery provides your child with personalized attention from teachers. Instead of teaching to a broad group of students without an understanding of their individual strengths and weaknesses, Personal Mastery allows teachers to interact with students individually or in small groups to help them better address their weaknesses. In this way, we strive to help your child reach their full potential.
