ZIS Vision: One Child, Two Languages - Unlimited Possibilities
ZIS Mission: We will provide and assist each student with a well-rounded and differentiated education that is centered around the immersion of the Spanish language and cultures to prepare them for a global society.
Instructional Focus: The SIOP Model in ALL classrooms. Please, por favor, PLEASE review, use, and reflect upon the components of SIOP and continue conversations within your grade level meetings during your common planning times. I believe in you and I believe in your desire to educate all children while meeting them where they are.

Online gradebook
An updated and accurate grade book is an invaluable tool for all educators. It is expected that grade books will be updated on a weekly basis. Please perform a gradebook report on PowerSchool each Friday to ensure grades are not lost when report cards go out. TPS policy requires a minimum of:
· 2 grades per week for Reading
· 2 grades per week for Math
· 1 grade per week for Social Studies
· 1 grade per week for Science.
· 4 grades per quarter for Specials subjects
· Grades from library projects will be infused into the grade book of the subject it is covering as needed.
Have a GREAT WEEK! You are the best of the best, and I am blessed to be with such great professionals like YOU! This is the best school in the nation!
Rasgo del mes
With Honor
Instructional Focus
Many people were honest (and thank you for that) and said, in our CPA meetings, that they did not really work on the use of the SIOP Model. Others have been on it like white on rice! Please, encourage and support each other in using, faithfully, Content Objectives and Comprehensible Input. PK-12th GRADE!!! I believe in you all!!! http://www.cal.org/siop/about/
Teacher of the Week
El Orgullo de Zarrow
Srta. Primo!!!!!!!!!! You get the Principal's parking space for the entire week. (I'll do this for everyone when it's your week.)
Although this is a random drawing I'd like to point out this teacher's strengths. Srta. Primo, as you all know, is one of, if not the most, happiest person ever! She adds such a positive energy to our school and I admire her for this reason, as well as many more! She is ALWAYS supportive, happy, helpful, professional, and just a genuine joy! She only comes to school/work to help students learn, to learn herself, and to be there for others. This wonderful teacher has enriched my life so much and has inspired me to be a better person and principal.
Srta. Primo, no tengo palabras suficientes pero sí, quiero que sepa una cosa: Tiene que entender que su presencia en nuestra escuela crea una motivación que nadie puede explicar. Gracias por ser tan linda siempre y gracias por crear un ambiente muy positivo. Espero ser más como usted.
*So, since this is a short week I want to make up for the two days that Srta. Primo will not be able to park in the parking spot. So, Srta. Primo can wear jeans all week if she wants.
