Welcome to our Colon Community Schools’ web page. We are proud to be a small, rural school in the Magic Capital of the World. Our school offers small class sizes, a friendly atmosphere, but high expectations for all of our students. Our graduates go on to very challenging programs in the state’s largest universities and achieve very well. Some even have gone on to very demanding honors programs with high levels of success. The secret to these students’ success stories comes from being very involved in all activities and programs we have to offer. Our students also can be active in several sports and clubs that students in large schools often don’t. This active life style creates a well rounded individual who is confident in their self image. If this is what you hope for, then Colon Community Schools is just the place for you.
We also offer parents a way to be involved with their children. We encourage parental volunteers in our schools and if your work schedule keeps you busy then our Power School student information line keeps you up to date. This allows you to check your child’s attendance and grades on a daily basis. It also offers a quick way to send a teacher an e-mail to ask a question or offer suggestions on your child’s best learning style. If you are working and need PK-10 year old child care, our Child Care Center offers a pre-school environment and quality care before school, after school, and during school inservce days.
Our computer labs are new and up to date to make sure your children receive the best technology to keep them up to speed with students from around the globe. So if you are looking for a safe, educationally challenging, and opportunity rich school then, Colon Community Schools is the place for you. Welcome.
Sincerely,
Lloyd A. Kirby
