Meet our Board President

Steve and his wife (Trina) and son moved from Maryland to Green Valley 18 years ago to be closer to family.  His son Jackson is a Continental graduate where he started in kindergarten.  Steve’s daughter Zoe is following Jackson and will graduate Continental this year.  Steve’s wife of 22 years - Trina is a successful local Real Estate Agent.

He has a B.S from Indiana University of Pennsylvania with degrees in Management Information Systems and Accounting.   After college he began in the software business where he stayed for many years.  Steve later moved into residential mortgages, and he now runs a mortgage branch here in Green Valley.   

Steve began his relationship with Continental back in 2006 where he was asked to be on the Continental School Educational Foundation Board, he’s still a member today.  He joined the Continental Governing Board six years ago and is currently serving as the Board’s President.  He has four years left on his current term.

Steve firmly believes in the Continental Way – “THIS IS US”.  He’s helping Continental in the area’s to ensure Academic Rigor and Excellence, Safe and Orderly Learning Environment and to help Continental maintain its Financial Strength.  He always says, “once a Colt aways a Colt”.

Kelley moved to the Green Valley area in 2006.While building her career in the financial industry, her two older kids were growing up as Colts. By the time her now 2nd grader was ready to start kindergarten, she was a veteran Colts Parent. 

When she's not working or spending time with her family, she enjoys cheering her kids on in soccer, and watching them develop their skills in the fine arts. She can often be found out camping or cuddling up with one of her 3 dogs. 

Her interest in being on the school board developed while she was hard at work as a single mom. Being a governing School Board member is a good use of her skills as a way to give back to the school that has given her children so much. 

This month is Governing Board Appreciation Month.
Continental ESD appreciates our amazing governing board
members and will feature them this month. Please help us
Thank our board members.
