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.

My Biology teacher would jump off tables and things like that just to keep us students awake and excited.

most of the teachers are easily approachable and are consistent but then the majority are very inconsistent and change their mind and fuss the students out for doing it one way and then we turn it in and they say do it a different way.
