The ability to explore interests while maintaining a focus on academics is the key to Columbus Academy. However, high-achieving students can sometimes bring a toxic environment of competition between peers and classmates.

The school provides a opportunity to obtain top-notch education and prepares one academically for any level of college. The sport programs are also very good, but the school makes it very clear that the academics comes first. Teachers are all excellent at their jobs, and extremely helpful, making themselves available whenever extra help is needed. I am very fortunate to have been able to attend Columbus Academy.

Evil, woke, destructive training and indoctrination of children and attempting to destroy families.

Read the news. As parents suggested in earlier comments here in recent years, CA has become radicalized. Calling the police on parents asking questions, really? The faulty are dangerous to children.

Troublesome staff, not helpful, don't want parents to question anything.
