We have an incredible time at Columbia, all the school staff help us in so many ways. They have the best Principal, teachers, everyone at Columbia Elementary School makes us feel so welcome!!

I honestly wasn't very happy with the school as a whole. My oldest child was bullied a lot at the school and my youngest didn't learn as much as I had hoped she would (I understand that parents have to teach their kids as well, which we were doing especially with reading).

It is a small school that has a "family feel". Teachers are very responsive to the needs of the students, not only academically but also emotionally. They are open to discuss your child's needs with regards to social interaction, and they put time and effort to get to know your child. In very grade, teachers have maintained constant communication with parents; they also take the time to give your child assignments that are appropriate to their own development. Meaning, if they are advanced in reading, they put them in a group of kids that are also advanced, and they give them more challenging books, etc. The leadership is very much involved in the activities; we see the Principal and the Assistant Principal in almost all the school functions. The PTA is extremely active and creative. Overall, we couldn't be happier with this school.

Great school! I have been at this elementary school for over 9 years. It has a lower enrollment than other Fairfax County elementary schools, which makes the school a small, welcoming environment. The teachers know all of the kids, not just the ones in their class. A wide range of languages and cultures that have broadened my kids horizons. There are some engaged after school activities such as running, drama, and music. Very involved teachers and staff.
