GIS nerd comment about your map:

What is the point of adding a marker which you call the "center of each zone" when each zone is an irregular polygon? What makes that point the center? Is it average distance from N/S/E/W borders, center of population density distribution, ad hoc guess?

I would have just put the zone borders and centered the marker on the school's location. No need to add complexity or confusion with a meaningless center-of-the-zone mark.
