There are currently three school buildings in Zimmerman. One is the oldest in the town, Zimmerman Elementary School. This is celebrating its 50th anniversary of operation in 2007. It currently houses grades K-2. The other elementary school, Westwood Elementary School, is located west of the other elementary school. It is one of the most energy efficient schools in the country. It has earned many awards for this, and a spot on the local news for its extremely small energy bills. It contains a very efficient air filtration system, and the lighting is adjusted automatically to suit the needs of someone in the building. For example, if it was extremely sunny outside and the blinds on the school were open, the lights would automatically dim, as you would not need that much lighting. This school houses grades 3-5. It was completed in 2004. The other school is the combined Middle/High School. It was a middle school at first, and the high school students had to attend school at Elk River High School. This continued until 1999, when the addition for the high school was added on. Grades 6-8 are considered middle school, and 9-12 are considered high school.
