Attendance Matters at Columbia Elementary!
When a student misses just two days of school a month, they will miss...
20 days a year, 30 hours of math a year, 60 hours of reading a year, close to a year of school by 12th grade graduation.
It's important to come to school! Try to have your student to school every day!
Way to LEAD, Voyagers! Look who's leading with Recess Voyager Points this week.

Congratulations to Columbia's Decathlon teams. They performed quite well at the district competition. Fourth graders placed 2nd overall. Fifth graders placed 3rd overall. Sixth graders took 2nd overall. Way to represent, Voyagers!
