Such a great school. In my time with Columbus I always felt supported and uplifted by staff and teachers. They always went out of their way to help out and work with me even when I was being difficult. The school fosters a great community and promotes healthy relationships between students and their teachers. Even though its been 7 years since I left Columbus, I still look back on my experience there fondly and I would 100% recommend this school.

This is a wonderful school very friendly staff love the dual language and PTA is very shelf up with fundraising field trips also very friendly and willing to welcoming new members.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. The school did nothing to educate my child. Overcrowded classrooms, split teaching styles, just didn't work. We ended up pulling out child out of the school in the middle of the year because he/she wasn't learning anything. The principal is not concerned, nor does she do anything.

My son attends Columbus Elementary. At the end of last year, he started having a hard time going to school. He became very nervous and afraid to go. We weren't sure what was going on, but his teacher and the principle were VERY helpful and kind. They took my son under their wings and went above and beyond to help him out. I was very impressed and thankful. I think this school is great. There's a lot of caring teachers and admin's and they do great with what and how they teach the students.

Teachers are great but the principle has a few screws loose. Mr.Svec is my daughters 5th grade teacher and we couldn't be happier with him.

my son has special physical needs and the school goes above and beyond their requirements to see that my son gets what he needs.
