This school is the best school I've attended. PE is so fun. If you can get your child into this school he will learn so much.
Posted by a parent on 8/30/2018This is the best elementary school in Richland 2, hands down. It all starts from the principal, Dr. Franklin. Her caring spirit and passion for children is spread through out the school and staff memebers. I am so happy my son attends this school. His reading and math skills are beyond his grade lev
Posted by a parent on 8/10/2014I recently moved to the area from district 5, so I was a little skeptical of the rumors about district 2. Polo Road Elementary has by far exceeded my expectations. My children love the school and the staff. I would highly recommend this school, as well as the Quest magnet program. I have no complain
Posted by a parent on 4/17/2014Polo Road Elementary should receive a five star rating. It is an excellent, academic facility where all students are challenged. As a retired educator, myself, for over twenty-three years, I can easily recognize outstanding leadership, caring and devoted teachers, and a worthwhile and demanding curr
Posted by a community member on 4/2/2014I moved three boys from Private school to polo Elementary when we bought a new house in the area. The school boasts superior resources and an involved Teaching staff. Private School was a waste OF $$$. Our boys now test above their private school peers and more importantly they are having normal soc

Ni la directora hace nada todo lo mantienen en secreto y lo manejan como accidente. Si pudiera darle cero estrellas se lo daríaParent Review1y ago - L. B. Nelson Elementary School

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is an AMAZING school! I was there from kindergarten to 5th grade and it was really fun! The teachers are nice and their teaching strategies and rules are very good. The students there are really respectful and I didn't see any bullying there. I wish I could be at this school again because everyone was just friendly and I'm so glad I made so many good memories there! I would so recommend this school!Other Review8mo ago - Windsor Elementary School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy experience overall has been great other than the assists at the front desk hates her job and is only there for a check her attitude reflects it in a major way. She’s the first person you encounter when entering the school and the first to make you want to walk out the door!Parent Review7mo ago - Mission Hope Foundation

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy wife, daughter, and I came to Columbia in 2018 due to military orders – I was stationed at Fort Jackson. My daughter was about to start Pre-k 4, and we wanted to find a good school for the 2 years we would be here. We not only found the 2-year school in St John Neumann…we found her school for the next 7 years and beyond. Instead of moving away in retirement, we stayed right here because of SJN. The culture of the school is so welcoming, kind, nurturing. It runs from the Principal and Ass’t Principal through the admin staff and to the teachers. My daughter is challenged academically…the teachers teach in a way that makes learning fun and productive. There’s no “teaching to the test” at SJN…yet, the school outperforms other schools in MAP testing. If you’re a military family, you won’t find better support for you and your kids at any other school in Columbia.Parent Review1y ago
