Superintendent Welcome Letter

On Aug. 22, 450 students, from preschool to seniors, walked through the front doors of Custer County School District to begin another school year.

In doing so, they are taking advantage of a multitude of many wonderful educational opportunities provided by the taxpayers in our district.

This year, because of our students’ academic success, the district has again earned the distinction of receiving a rating of Accredited by the Colorado Department of Education. Even in the reality of declining state and federal revenue, CCSD continues to offer high quality programs and a well-rounded education to every student.

Our school district excels above many others because our parents, teachers, staff and community do a remarkable job of supporting our students and setting high expectations.

CCSD’s commitment to the community we serve is to love and care about our students and to do everything we can to ensure each student’s academic and extracurricular success.

We want our students to know how much it matters to us that they possess character, integrity and purpose for their lives and not just score well on tests.

We know that our students will someday graduate and leave our district. In doing so, we want to have confidence that we have prepared them well to be trustworthy, hard-working, wise and capable of honorable service to their family, community and nation.

Sincerely,
Lance Villers
Superintendent
