Welcome to Continental School District, home of the Continental Colts! We are a small school district located in Green Valley, Arizona, approximately 20 miles south of Tucson, and 40 miles north of Nogales, Sonora, Mexico. There are many exciting and beautiful things to see here in our area of the desert southwest.
Our school serves around 550 students in pre-school through 8th grade. We are very proud of our outstanding students and dedicated teachers. Because of their efforts, our school received the “Excelling School” title in 2007 from the Arizona Department of Education. We have high expectations for the students in our care and we are devoted to their success.
We hope you will spend some time on our new Web site. We have tried to include information you may need about our school and District, as well as Helpful Links we hope you'll find useful. If you would like to contact us directly, we would love to visit with you. We look forward to getting to know the people in our community who make Continental School District a supportive place to learn and grow.
I want to thank all the parents who attended our Open House. In addition, I want thank everyone for the tremendous cooperation with the change in traffic patterns this week.
The Solar Project is supposed to be under construction through the first week in November. We will keep you posted on any changes and appreciate your help in keeping the traffic flowing each day.
For additional information about this and other topics, you can read my Superintendent's Report from the August School Board meeting. Below I have some additional information for parents regarding upcoming events.
- The K-4 students will have an assembly to recognize students who have exemplified "integrity" this month. The assembly will be in the cafeteria at 9:15 a.m. on Tuesday, August 31. We will also have a speaker and a presentation from the Elks club.
- The after school sports program has started, and other clubs will be starting soon. I will work on a posting for the Web site, and be sure look for notes coming home.
- School pictures are Monday, August 30.
- Next week, we will be creating a Web page for school bond and override election facts with a link on the homepage. Please check out this important information.
- September 28 is the 40th day of school and an important count day for funding. We currently have 575 students attending school.
