School work is important, but sports were idolized, arts programs weren't noticed, some teachers didn't do their absolute best they could, safe school, but the occasionally bully, could be hard to fit in

Columbia School District cares about its students and community. It is nice to attend a school that is in a small town because you are able to get to know one another and interact on many levels with other students and teachers.

I have been at this school for all 4 years of High School and I think that the administration and the overall safety of the school is really great. The sports and the clubs are also very good. I have found most of my friends through sports or clubs during my time at this school. The safety at our school is really good, there is always a resource officer on campus and I for one feel safe at my school. I think one thing we could work on at my school is having more diversity. Our town in general doesn't have a lot of diversity so I think those who look differently from most of us may feel out of place, and I dont want them to think that. I think our school could also do a better job at the Music & Arts part of our school. There are some art classes you can take but not a lot. I think that music is a big part in a lof of peoples life at my school so I think that they might wish there were more classes they could take for that. Overall I really like my school and have had a great 4 years.

I don't have many positive things to say about this school. It is full of prissy wannabes, that are very rude. They have no respect for others and only care about themselves. They always boast about their great sports programs, but they struggled to even win more than two football games this year. H...
