Jen Rozelle-Trinosky, Art
I am so excited to have this amazing opportunity to be teaching art at Boone Meadow Elementary. I began my journey as an art teacher in 2017 in the Indianapolis Public Schools system. I have been so thankful to have the chance to share my passion for the arts with so many children. My hope every day is that my students can see my passion through my energy and joy I bring to the classroom.
I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago and yes, I AM, a true Chicago Cubs fan!! Go Cubs Go! Years and years ago I worked in aviation. My family owned and operated an aviation flight school located in South Florida. After closing that business we relocated to Zionsville. We lived in Zionsville from 2008-2014 when we relocated to downtown Indianapolis. In July of 2019 we relocated again back to Zionsville. I am still an active studio Mixed Media Sculpture artist working out of my studio in the Stutz Arts and Business Building.
We have a big family. My husband and I have four children. Corrine (24), Margret (20), David (15), and Abigail (13) keep us very busy. Our two oldest live in Northern Ohio and are doing fabulously as young adults. Our two youngest attend Zionsville schools and are overjoyed to be back with old friends. Luke, my husband, is a professional chef and loves to spend time riding his Harley. In my free time, when I’m not chasing kids or doing the jobs that I love, I can usually be found relaxing in the sunshine or swinging on our tree swing.

Volunteers and Visitor Background Checks
CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR VOLUNTEERS
We value partnerships with our families and welcome parents and guardians to serve as volunteers in our schools. Each ZCS building offers a wide variety of volunteer opportunities.
Examples include:
- Field Trip Chaperones
- Out of Town/Overnight Chaperones
- Tutors
- Volunteer Coaches
- Classroom Helpers (PTO parties/room parents)
- Library Helpers
- After Prom Workers
- Field Day/Jog-A-Thon Volunteers
- Book Fair Sales/Athletic Ticket Sales
During the school day, all volunteers are expected to sign in at the front office. Prior to the volunteer opportunity, all volunteers must sign a Non-disclosure Acknowledgement Form and have successfully completed a Full Criminal History Background Check. Necessary background check paperwork is available on the ZCS website at the Volunteers/BRAVO link and should be submitted at least 10 days prior to the intended volunteer date. Volunteers must also view the state mandated confidentiality/bullying video, provided on the Volunteer/BRAVO website. The volunteer will pay the fee* for the full background check which will expire after 5 years. The link to apply for the full background check can be accessed on the Volunteers/BRAVO link on the ZCS main webpage. For more information, contact the Volunteer/BRAVO Coordinator.
CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS FOR VISITORS
During the school day, all visitors must enter via the front door and sign-in at the front office. Visitors need to be prepared to present a government issued photo ID which will be scanned against the National Sex Offender Registry. All visitors will be issued a visitor badge/tag to be worn inside the building at all times.
Examples Include:
- Lunch Guests
- Classroom Guest Speakers
- Classroom Special Events (Grandparent Day/Famous Hoosiers/etc.)
- Parent/Teacher Conferences
We ask that all visitors schedule an appointment to meet with teachers, counselors, administrators and all other staff members so that we may best serve everyone. Visitors other than parents/guardians must be prearranged and organized through the main office.
*ZCS thanks all volunteers for generous support of our youth and schools. Thank you, too, for supporting assurance of student and staff safety by completing and paying for a volunteer background check.
