Principal's Message
Dear Zeh Families,
On Thursday evening, I attended the Go the Distance Awards at Algonquin, and as always, it was one of my favorite events of the year. The evening is a reminder of the positive impact our educators have on the students each day. I enjoy hearing students' personal messages about why they chose to nominate particular staff members.
This year, Zeh had an especially large number of staff members recognized. Congratulations to Hillary Blood, Tami Johnson, Stephanie Dennington, Scott Arnold, Victoria Leger, Laurie Donovan, Vickie Berry, Amy Jacobs, and Danielle Recinos on this well-deserved recognition. We are fortunate to have such a dedicated and caring team supporting our students every day.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!
Mr. Bell

Intent to Withdraw
Dear Zeh Families,
This is an exciting time of year, with Zeh filled with activity and much to celebrate. It is also a time when we begin planning for the upcoming 2026–2027 school year.
The purpose of this communication is to ask for your support with that planning. If you intend to withdraw your student from Zeh or if your family is moving to another residence within the District, please notify the school office. We are here to help guide you through the process of transferring schools or reestablishing residency, as needed.
Your timely communication is important to our planning efforts and helps us best support students during times of transition. If you have questions regarding residency, please feel free to contact our Transportation and Registration Specialist, Sheila Hana, or reach out to the school office directly.
Enjoy these final weeks of the school year—it's a wonderful time to reflect and celebrate.
Best regards,
Jon Bell
