    The school has no ac so for the hot days it is sooo humid in the school, the teachers talk too much…read moreand the school smells like garbage sometimes but we have a mix of students so everyone's welcome, it's alright.

    HELLO IT IS I SIR LOCUST THE THRID AND IM HERE TO PLACE AN UPDATE ON COLUMBIA ACADEMY MIDDLE SCHOOL…read more Hearken, good folk of the realm, for I, Sir Locust The III, hath returned from mine accursed pilgrimage unto the dread halls of Columbia Academy--and lo, the torment endureth still. The stone walls yet echo with the groans of weary scholars, burdened by scrolls most tedious and lessons that sap the very will to live (in an academic sense, of course). The keepers of this institution, though clad in garments of authority, appear no wiser than before, for chaos yet reigneth in the corridors like an untamed beast. The feast halls (they call them "cafeterias") continue to serve rations of such questionable origin that even the kingdom's rats would pause in suspicion. And the bells--oh, the infernal bells!--they toll with such fury that one might think the end times approach thrice daily. I had once hoped for reform, a glimmer of enlightenment within these cursed grounds. Alas, 'tis but a fool's dream. The academy persists as a fortress of confusion and despair, unyielding to change, unmoved by the cries of its students. Thus I proclaim: enter these gates only if thou art prepared for trials most vexing, and arm thyself with patience, for thou shalt surely need it. -- Sir Locust The III, ever-suffering reviewer of the realm

    I didn't initially start my children at St. Vincent de Paul School and was very reluctant to so…read morewhen I did. The reasons being that I was aware of the amount of busy work and numerous projects that students were given throughout the years at this school. I know this because a family member of mine sent children here and I would on occasion help them with homework. Initially, my children's experience was wonderful. I am sad to say that experience didn't last long. Therefore, after several months their experience at this school ended. While my children were there I often volunteered and came to eat lunch with them. I noticed a lot during these visits. I am very conservative and like to decide what I feel is important for my children and how our money should be spent. I firmly believe that a teacher can make or break a younger student's school experience. I also feel if one is going to pay for a religious education that all staff should exemplify Christian teachings and behavior. I don't feel that this was being demonstrated by all staff at this school. I have included pros and cons of the things I noticed and experienced while my children attended St. Vincent's. Hopefully, they will help you in your decision making efforts. I also encourage you to write a review on whatever school you choose to help others decide also. Deciding on a school is big decision and it is hard for one to know what a school is like until your child has attended it. Pros Administration often helps with serving hot lunch. Cafeteria staff makes holidays extra special for students and John is wonderful. Students can get seconds on lunch items without an additional charge. Students in younger grades get a lunch recess and typically an additional one if the teacher is willing to do so. Not all are willing to do so during the winter months. Some the teachers are wonderful and exemplify Christian teachings and behaviors throughout the day. Playground staff is nice to students. Some of the teachers spend their lunch hour eating with students. Students get out early leaving a good portion of the day remaining for those that have a stay at home parent. Uniforms can be purchased at several online and local retailers for reasonable prices. The school doesn't require the school name or logo to be on the clothing, which is a savings. Students in grades 1-8 have their own lockers. The school keeps extra clothing available for emergency situations. However, I recommend having your child keep an extra set of clothing in his/her locker or school bag. The school doesn't keep every size available. Milk price for snack is very reasonable. In 2014 it was fifteen cents. Many staff know students by name. Cons I caught administration lying to my children and then administration tried to tell me that my children were the ones lying. The sad thing is that administration said " I would do it again". This is when things got difficult because administration didn't like that I caught them lying. This is not the type of leadership I want in the school my children attend. Administration could do a much better job in handling issues. Administration could do much better in following through with what they say. Administration doesn't know what the class activity fee is used for and doesn't review teachers supply lists. Administration admitted to me when I pointed some things out on the supply list that some of the quantities seemed excessive. School supplies are overstated; water colors used only once. The mile run is ran on asphalt for the majority of the grades rather than a dirt track - safety issue. School could do a better job with children that have special learning/medical needs. Communication needs improving; parents aren't always informed when they can attend school functions and when students can be dismissed early afterward. Home and School Association and Advisory Board don't publish meeting minutes monthly. Parents are expected to view and print most items from online. Exit interviews aren't conducted by pastor when children are withdrawn from school. Indoor recess sometimes consists of having children remain at desk and be silent. Recycling isn't taught or demonstrated by all teachers. When students are trying to be courteous to other teachers when passing in hallways they are told to get moving. The school has numerous fees and fundraisers. Not all teachers demonstrate Christian teachings or behaviors. Not all teachers are compassionate and some make students cry. Teachers and children aren't any more respectful or polite than at public schools. St. Vincent's doesn't draw from all that affluent of an area and not enough emphasis is placed on watching its customers pocket books. Principle doesn't believe in consistency or mandating policies for staff such as amount of homework. However, there is no problem in doing so for parents. Parent drop off and pick up can be time consuming. There isn't a nurse on duty for the entire day.

These religious truths/values serve as a foundation for the student's future ministries in the church, family, and community. At our school, children grow in their understanding of themselves, their relationship with God, and others. We believe in providing more than an outstanding academic experience. Our focus extends to supporting character formation, inspiring values-based decision-making, deepening love for others, sparking a love for learning, and creating a thirst to understand our Faith. We work with parents to help our children grow in their faith and community. We invite our surrounding communities to visit our school today.
