"I am a student going into my senior year. I do NOT recommend sending any student to this school. Not only do atleast over half of the teachers there not actually teach what needs to be taught, but the administrators are completely unfair, unconcerned, and not hepful in any way. Some of the rules are unheard of. There is always 'favorites', in other words, the students that play a sport or are really active in school activities. On top of their nonchalant attitudes, a lot of the students there are so incredibly rude. Not to mention, the bullying that is done there, honestly, you can find so many videos online of fights that have taken place at the school. I do give them credit on quickly sending those kids home, but there has been, on more thann one occasion, students that walk around threatening other students lives, and when the issue is reported to somebody, absolutely NOTHING i done about it. I honestly fear, everyday, of what will happen everyday there. All I can say is, I'm so glad I have one more year left, then I can finally get out of that hole."

"I am a senior at Columbia High and to be honest, i would not recommend this school to a parent. The administration are not understanding and rude, they are very narrow minded and tend to have favorites whom you will never see in trouble. the school is not tolerant to those who are not in a sport / club / extracurricular activity. The school has ruined students academic future by sending them to alternative schools over petty rule breaking such as referrals because of wearing hats in the building or not wearing a belt. The school is over crowded and has an unfriendly atmosphere with crowded lunches and hallways filled with rude students. if you have any other choice of schools to send your child go with them. Coming from a student with experience with this school."

"I am a former educator at CHS. I taught at CHS for 6 wonderful years (2003-2009) when our family was transferred out of state. My own children attended CHS and loved it! They received a very good, balanced education. My fellow teachers were committed to the students and vested in CHS. They cared! CHS offers a variety of extra-curricular activities and a solid education to those that seek it out."

"My daughters first time at the school, so far everything is going very well and she very much enjoys her classes and teachers. A much more pleasant experience than the private school she previously attended. I was very surprise how well she is doing and how accommodating the school guidance and teachers are with her. She is a much more happier student and looks forward to going to school each day."
