It's always a fun blast from the past visiting your elementary school! On Friday, two Zia Alumni, Scott Elliott and Matt Elliott came back for a visit. They had a great time touring around the school and seeing all the changes from when they attended Zia!

Our Zia students showed off their singing talents at their end of the year performances with Mrs. Cole, our amazing music teacher!

We are so grateful for all that she does for our students and how wonderful their performances were.
