🩺 Paging Doctor First Grader! 🩺

Ms. Stone’s 1st grade class suited up in their doctor outfits last week for some extra special Spirit Day learning! Our young surgeons got to work performing "word surgery" to master contractions.

Hands-on learning is always the best medicine at Columbia Elementary!

🐾 During our dance contest at the Fall Picnic, the Columbia Cougar took the floor. When Callie and Caroline won, the mascot revealed his true identity: their dad, home from deployment overseas!

In celebration of Blue Star Welcome Week, we want to share how honored Columbia Elementary is to be a Purple Star School. We are so deeply grateful to all of our military families and service members for their dedication and sacrifice.

Welcome home, and thank you for your service! 🇺🇸

Our 4th graders had a blast bringing geography to life during this week’s project! Using different colored salt dough, students crafted hands-on 3D maps to explore and identify the 5 regions of Virginia.

Hands-on learning makes big concepts stick! Drop a ❤️ to show these young geographers some love.

The Real Superheroes of Columbia Elementary! 🧹✨

When our students and staff walk through the doors on the first day of school, everything is going to shine, and we have three incredible people to thank for that!

A massive THANK YOU to Mr. Ming, Ms. Carmen, and Ms. Mary! 🌟 They’ve spent the hot summer months working tirelessly behind the scenes to deep clean, polish, repair, and prepare every single classroom and hallway for a fresh new school year.

When you see them in the halls when school begins, be sure to give them a high five and a big thank you! 👏❤️
