Just a suggestion, but you could describe the pre-zombie apocalypse word in 'flashbacks', and start the story post-apocalypse, just an idea. :P

Since this story will be from the character(s) point(s) of view I assume none of these people will know how the outbreak happened. So the details on how and specific details on where are probably unneeded. But keep in mind that if this outbreak happened, and it was spreading - how come it hadn't reached your house, or how come you hadn't heard anything or seen any zombies on the way to school? :P Just, be wary of plot holes. :P
