8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI would say my experience at Columbia Middle School was very trashy. Although the teachers were very kind and caring many other members of the staff were not. Many times when bullying would become a topic it was never taken care of and that takes a toll on a kid. In my overall experience I would not recommend Columbia Middle School.Other Review1y ago - Columbia High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI don't have many positive things to say about this school. It is full of prissy wannabes, that are very rude. They have no respect for others and only care about themselves. They always boast about their great sports programs, but they struggled to even win more than two football games this year. Hopefully this helps other. Don't sent your kid to any of the schools in this district if you want them to succeed in school and in life!Other Review2y ago - Parkview Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI am so impressed with the positive attitude and energy at this school. I always enjoy walking the halls and seeing student work everywhere. My daughter has thrived here and I couldn't be more happy. I only wish that I had went to a school like this.Parent Review16y ago - Eagleview Elementary School
