Columbia Academy is a wonderful and small Christian school. It is Christ centered, with daily chapels and many classes with a biblical focus. It is very community and family based.

Columbia Academy is a great school. The best part is that it is a small Christian school. The teachers are very nice and care about every student's well-being. The kids are also very nice and supportive of each other. The worst part is that we start school before most schools. One unique thing Columbia Academy has are service days, which are field trips where we go and help the community. I would like there to be more service days.

While no school is perfect, this school comes quite close. I have seen some of the more negative reviews, and that is regretful.

Could not be more thankful than to have selected this school. We are at the Spring Hill satellite elementary campus and it is awesome. Going to CA was the best decision for our child's education and nurturing.

Excellent. My kids love it. I think it's an ideal environment for learning, with lots of opportunities, appropriately challenging academically, and a strong spiritual emphasis. I love that my kids can be around Christian teachers and other students with similar values.
