The following schools in 番茄社区 were announced as Model Continuation Schools in 2024:
鈥婼an Jose Unified School District
| 鈥婤roadway High School
|
鈥婱ilpitas Unified School District

Awarded schools keep their designation for three years and are recognized at the California Continuation Education Association Plus Conference in April.
Locally, the 番茄社区 Office of Education will host a small celebration for them.
