Welcome To Zellwood Elementary School!
Hello to all of our Eagles and Parents! Thank you for visiting our website; hopefully, you will
find it full of useful information and bookmark this site for easy reference.
I am proud to have been named Principal of Zellwood Elementary in the summer of 2021
and can’t wait to work with the students, parents, teachers, staff and community to lead our
school to new heights! Zellwood is a special little “hidden gem,” sitting in a beautiful and
peaceful location. It provides the perfect setting for our students to excel in a safe and
tranquil environment.
If you are currently a parent of a Zellwood student, we ask for your continued support of
our efforts with your child. Checking homework and student agendas, monitoring your
child’s grades and reading with your child each day, will help him/her reach his/her full,
academic potential. Our parents make the difference, both in and out of school.
If you are considering having your children attend Zellwood, we welcome you to tour our
website and social media pages to become more familiar with our school. Additionally, you
are also welcome to plan a visit to our school. The administration schedules school tours
throughout the year for families moving into our attendance zone and considering
enrollment. We think you will be very impressed with what our school has to offer your
family!
We have an exciting year planned and are ecstatic to have been welcomed into the learning
community of Innovation Schools within Orange County. Our Eagles are enjoying new and
exciting learning initiatives and we can’t wait to see the impact these strategies will have on
student learning! Teachers are spending a lot of time being trained in Orton-Gillingham,
student engagement strategies, the new BEST standards, and other high-yield professional
development. Students are participating in our new “House System”, enjoying room
transformations that bring learning to life, and getting swept up in the energy and
community spirit as we cultivate a sense of “Ohana”. Ohana means family, and family means
no one gets left behind at Zellwood!
We can’t contain our excitement for what’s to come and we are so happy to have you on
this journey along with us! On behalf of our dedicated and high-performing team, I want to
say thank you to our students, parents and the community for your support of Zellwood,
where we are shaping tomorrow’s leaders, today!
