Posted by a community member on 7/31/2025Since kindergarten my kids experience here has been amazing! I believe that A LOT of the negative things that are being said about this school are based on "beliefs " and the past. This school is being stereotyped as poor and low test scores because of the "area". The teachers here have been amazing
Posted by a parent on 11/10/2023Bob Mathis has shown tremendous improvement under the leadership of Dr. Blackwell & her staff.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter attended Columbia Elementary for Pre-K in the 2024-2025 school year and it was a wonderful experience for all of us. The administration, faculty, and staff all impressed me, and I am grateful to them. The school is located in a beautiful little enclave of Decatur, and having it near my home has been a blessing. There is a lot of love at this school!Parent Review11mo ago - Chapel Hill Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI went to this school 8 years ago when I was in the 5th grade. I felt very unsafe, I felt like everyone treated me differently from the other students because of my skin color and my condition that I have. Everyone was rude and disrespectful towards me. I was too young to realize it at the time but as I got older I realized and remembered how badly everyone treated me, I never returned to that school after my first year attending 5th grade there, I ended up transferring to another state and another school and not wanting to attend that school ever again in my life. Also when I attended that school teachers admitted to my face that they didn't like me at all, and I don't know if it was because of my HDHD, my skin color, or how I behaved but I know that I was a loving and caring little girl who wanted to be nice and be friends with everyone. I am 19 years old now and a family member sent me a link to this website. I just wanted to give my review and comments.Other Review2y ago - Anointed Word Christian School
