Serving students from Kindergarten to 3rd grade and their families, Columbus Elementary School is committed to taking a holistic approach to education.

The staff at Columbus Elementary values individual student differences and the uniqueness of every child, striving to instill in all students a sense of cooperation, a concern for others and a love of learning. This commitment is evidenced through our continuing efforts to develop and deliver a challenging curriculum that teaches students how to learn, how to apply learning, how to become problem-solvers, and how to be creative and self-disciplined.

The school stresses a variety of language experiences, scientific exploration, computational literacy, artistic creativity, and physical activity. Our efforts are based on the use of effective instruction through engaged participatory activity.

We seek to develop in our students a sense of community and deepening responsibility to and for the world's people and places. We place significant emphasis on the development of positive self-concept and respect for others.

Columbus Elementary is a relaxed and friendly place, and we recognize and respect different learning styles and are united in our commitment to reach each child.

Together we are committed to our motto: Learning Today, Leading Tomorrow.
