Columbia is a small school with great teachers that challenge us with an advanced curriculum that also applies to the real world. The students are friendly and supportive of each other. I have not seen any bullying or exclusion. As a student I see no downsides. Even though the school is small, it has all the activities the students want and the parents and teachers work together for all the students to have a great academic and social high school experience.

My son is going into his 5th year at Columbia and we love this school. What stands out most to me is the feeling of community that is apparent at Columbia. The loving teachers, the involved parents, the small classes, the fact that faith is infused in all aspects of learning. I am grateful we found Columbia and look forward to my son being able to stay here, at the same school, from preschool through the end of High School.

The environment here does not seem conducive to meaningful learning. Many of the children display unkind or insincere behavior, and the overall atmosphere can feel superficial. Staff professionalism is inconsistent, and there are concerns about students being treated politely in person only to be sp...

If your child is not white, male, and a Christian who doesn't ask hard questions (we read Leviticus at school, and I was chastised for trying to question and understand how God could be so cruel to the people he created), this school is NOT for them. Blatant homophobia, racism, sexism and even abuse...

We LOVE being a part of the Columbia Family. Even though we are relatively new, I know the relationships our 3 kids and ourselves are making are the kind that last a lifetime. My kids are growing in all areas; spiritually, academically, physically, socially and their focus on building good character...
