Columbia Elementary School

School was great when current Superintendent Clay Ross was principal and Super. Since Courtney Pratt has assumed role of principal, the school has gone downhill. She deliberately disobeyed parents request for disciplinary action. She interferes with parental involvement at the school and disregards any parental discussion regarding the students teachers. If you are looking for a school to give your child the best, healthiest environment to encourage and empower them while also instigating parental involvement and working together, THIS IS NOT THE SCHOOL. As a matter of fact, it is the exact opposite. It’s a shame because they have some excellent teachers (Christine Dooley, Suzie Sactena, the list goes on), however, unity and success at quickly derailed at the hands of Courtney Pratt and the insufficient staff in which she fiercely protects over your students success.

We've been very please with this school! Great teacher, great parents and a wonderful community feel. Love Columbia!

I've been thoroughly impressed with this school and it's teachers. Both of my children love this school and every teacher they have had thus far. I would strongly recommend it to any parent looking for a quality education.

Clay Ross is NOT who you want teaching your children. This school is lacking diversity
