Dear Continental Colony Family, 

I am truly humbled to serve the Continental Colony Elementary community as Interim Principal. I am grateful for the strong foundation that has been built here and for the leadership that has guided our school with the belief that together, we increase life chances. That belief continues to anchor our work and remains at the heart of everything we do.

My educational philosophy centers on three core commitments: Connection, Community, and Capacity. I believe meaningful learning begins with strong relationships—between students and teachers, families and staff, and schools and communities. When we intentionally nurture connection, we strengthen our community, and through that community we build the capacity of every child and adult to grow, lead, and succeed.

I look forward to continuing the important work already in place at Continental Colony Elementary. We will remain focused on high-quality instruction, student well-being, and creating an environment where every child feels seen, supported, and challenged. While our school is entering an important season of transition, our purpose remains unchanged: to serve each student with excellence, care, and urgency—every day.

I am deeply committed to ensuring that Continental Colony Elementary continues to be a place where students thrive, families feel valued, and staff feel supported. Together, we will honor our school’s legacy by showing up fully for our students and giving them our very best—today and always.

With appreciation,

Christopher Gomillion
Interim Principal

Annette Mitchell

Hello! 

My name is Annette C. Mitchell. I am proud to call Continental Colony Elementary School my home for the past 13 years. I have taught 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades during my time at Pantherville. Currently I am the IB and AVID Coordinator. This position has given me the opportunity to work closer with my colleagues, and to interact with the entire student body. 

Growing up in Brooklyn, New York I always knew that I would be an educator because my parents taught me to value education. Therefore, I became captivated with learning, helping and inspiring others. Since I was a youngster, I have had a love for reading and history, and because of these loves, I have had the wonderful opportunity to travel overseas and explore historical destinations firsthand. 

In my spare time I love restoring antique furniture, doing home improvements, and hanging out with my family and friends. 

Timisha Foster

As a Math Instructional Coach with 19 years of experience in education, I’m passionate about supporting teachers and helping students reach their full potential. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of teaching 1st through 4th grades, which has given me a deep understanding of how young learners grow and thrive in mathematics.

In my current role, I partner with teachers to strengthen math instruction, build confidence in classroom practices, and create engaging learning environments where all students can succeed. I believe in the power of collaboration, meaningful practice, and continuous growth—for both students and educators.

One of my favorite quotes, by Paul Halmos, captures the heart of what I do:
“The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics.”

Whether modeling lessons, guiding data-driven instruction, or co-planning with teachers, my mission remains the same: to inspire a love for math and a belief in every child’s ability to succeed.
