Columbus was a great school to push me into the right direction. Their policies help keep the students on track and that is what I love about the school. The amount of clubs and extracurricular programs was a way to stay excited about school and keep us all active not with just school work but something fun. I will definitely miss this school.

The best parts of my experience are having supportive teachers that are willing to work with each student and their needs and having a course load that is really similar to the college level. My only complaint is the facility being a little older than others so it's pretty small and a few things are outdated but it's overall still a really great school.
5/20/2025
I would say Columbus High School overall has been a good school, but it's mostly due to the students. The students are usually the ones putting in most of the work while the administrators spend their time giving detention to a girl wearing a slightly too short of a skirt.

My son was attacked in the school bathroom and didn’t tell anyone—not a teacher, not a counselor, not even a friend. Why? Because he didn’t trust anyone there. That says everything about the environment. The teachers didn’t listen before when he needed help with smaller issues, so when something ser...

I will say my son got attack in the bathroom and never told anyone because of how distrustful the teachers are. I had to move to a diffrent school completely! DO NOT RECOMMEND, my son fell into a deep depression and still has not come out of it.
5/29/2024
Great school with good and not so good teachers. I am personally had a very bad experience with one of the new teachers. I believe the teacher was intentionally taking points off and persistently misplaced my child’s grades… not sure for what reason… possibly due to our ethnicity? … simply not likin...
