Black students, especially black boys are not treated equally by the principal and several teachers. Black boys are most likely to be suspended and disciplined than any other race at Columbia Middle School. The implicit bias against my son started at the beginning of 6th grade and continued through 8th grade. So many black students have transferred from this school because of these issues. The leaders of this school should consider using compassionate intervention strategies and learn how to build positive relationships with black students.

If I could give it no stars I would. The staff lacks communication and is very disrespectful. Would not recommend to anyone. Take your kid somewhere else

I've moved my whole life and not once I've had such a hard time keeping up with my grades. This school system compared to up north is ridiculous and honestly they should change it. What happened to giving children homework to understand the material instead of constantly giving them tests back to back. What happened to doing your homework boosts up your grade and weighs more than a test grade. This school mostly focuses on tests and exams and put those higher above anything else. Getting homework is rarely to none. And quizzes and tests come up almost every week or two. Some teachers here honestly just don't want to teach. Let me rephrase that. Some teachers here want to actually teach and want their students to succeed but shouldn't be teaching since they don't know how to help the students. Most teachers here barely teach in the classroom and expect you to learn everything at home. THIS ISN'T COLLEGE. You are in school and I expect to learn in class than rather teaching a material to myself that I barely understand. Giving homework would help many students but apparently homework is nonexistent here.Teachers are supposed to help the students and try to make it easier for them to pass their classes. That's their job so every student can succeed but some teachers are forgetting that. I say some because not all of them are like this but the majority are. And don't get me started on how rude some teachers comments are. They say ask questions and sometimes a student is generally confused and need a different approach to understand. One teacher really yelled and used overly big words acting like the student can understand. LEARN TO DUMB THINGS DOWN. We know you took this in college but your teaching students who all learn differently. This is one of many reasons why when someone needs help they WONT raise their hand. This school is also bad for students mental health and drains them mentally and emotionally since most kids are stressing on their grades from test scores that drop your grade dramatically. Plus the behavior of most students in this school is disgusting. The way boys here act towards girls and the way some girls think dressing up like its a fashion show benefits them. People here also love to judge so that's why most kids here wear brand things and dress up a lot. People get bullied for the type of shoe their wearing, its not that serious. Maybe that's their only pair, there is no compassion what so ever. There's more but there.
