Mission Statement

The staff and parents of Columbia Elementary believe that every student can reach his/her highest potential of growth, personal integrity and responsibility.
The staff and parents agree that academic success will be achieved through opportunities and experiences that will unleash every child’s special talent(s). With a comprehensive, integrated curriculum, students will learn a basic set of knowledge and develop a curiosity and love of learning that will motivate them to seek new information.
The staff and parents propose that every student will have opportunities to develop a personal integrity that will respect others, and provide service to the community and oneself.
Students will leave Columbia with a personal responsibility, a strong base of knowledge, a sense of service to their communities and recognition of their own unique talents. These core values will help students throughout their school careers and lives.
