The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The teachers I encountered during my time there were very helpful and led me to a better student. Columbia offered college courses through BCCC and helped me graduate with my high school diploma as well as my associate degree.

The administration was my aspect of attending CHS. Mr. Yancey is fair and treats everyone with respect. Whenever I had an issue, I would take it to him because I knew it would be resolved effectively.
