We transitioned our son to Columbia Academy from a home daycare setting when he turned 2 years old, on the recommendation of a friend whose children attended the same location a decade before.  Our son is now in the Pre-K 4 class.   Our experience at Columbia Academy has been wonderful!  The staff is dedicated and attentive.  They are also very observant, bringing our attention to the fact that our son had a vision problem at age 3.  We have also been pleased with the variety and scope of the educational curriculum, as well as the emphasis on independence as our son grows.  Lastly, we appreciate the diversity of the students and staff, which we feel enhances the learning environment for our child.
