Columbia Middle School

A little boy was playing and kicked my daughter. My daughter was playing and hit him back. My daughter was sent out of her classroom for hitting the boy back. The principal called me to let me know that she talked with my daughter about hitting. The principal stated they both were playing. The principal didn't tell me the whole story of how she interrupted my daughter's lunch, had her take her lunch tray in her office and talk with her then 2hrs later. That was so unnecessary and this us not the first incident concerning my daughter. The district office have been informed several times about many other incidents and they will be informed again. I will be notified first before my child will be sent anywhere. She was already sent to another class. And the little boy's parents take pictures for the school but she is going to tell my daughter if she hit someone in middle school it will be assault. Well the little boy kicked my daughter. He assaulted my daughter Katy Yeargin since you want to talk about assault. I will be contacting the school district again. It have been so many complaints!!!!!!!! My child will not sit in no one's office until I am called first not after the fact. No one will say anything to my child without me being present. Any situation you let me know I'm the parent not after the fact so I can come to the school then. If you have the time to talk to my child, you have the time to talk to me and she have been told moving forward any other incident "call my mom"!!!!!!

Everyone I have come into contact with including the school “cop” is RUDE. I would not recommend this school to anyone looking for a friendly environment to become a part of.

Both of my kids are currently attending this school. Teachers are great and the kids are happy here. The school organizes many activities that keep the students engaged and excited about learning.

I am thankful for the positive impact BPE has had on my child's educational journey. The conducive learning environment, the supportive community, and the commitment to fostering a love of learning make BPE an outstanding choice for elementary education.
