Hello Thunderbird Families!

🇺🇸 Remember and Honor 🇺🇸
Today, we pause to remember those who served and paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
Their courage and selflessness will never be forgotten.

Happy Last Week of the 2024-25 School Year! You should be very proud of your kiddos...they have truly grown over the year! This Thursday at 9:45 we will say good-bye to our 8th graders as they walk across the Thunderdome floor one last time, making a commitment to graduate on time with their peers in the year 2029. The 8th grade class is our largest class with roughly 240 students. We are really going to miss them as they venture into high school. We can't wait to see you back to walk the halls of Zia in 2029 as high school Seniors! Take with you the memories you have made and the education you have received and make the most of your high school years. Parents, buckle up and enjoy the ride as the 4 years of high school will fly by!

8th Grade transition ceremony is Thursday at 9:45. All friends and family are welcome! 8th grade class picture will be taken at 9:00 in they gym prior to the ceremony so students, please be on time! The ceremony will also be live streamed for those that can't make it. The link below will take you directly to the live stream:
