As a past employer of Columbiana school. The leadership is great far as principal. The leadership goals is shown daily from the inside out. Teachers, administrative bodies are concerns about problems especially "bullying" is immediately handle. Parents are not afraid to send their kids to school I love columbiana Middle School where everyone is important.
The atmosphere is perfectly condusive to learning. Everyone within our school cares about our students and about each other. We operate as a family, but solely in tune to the needs of our students.
I attended CMS, and now my youngest is a student there. Through the years, the faculty and staff have consistently brought out the potential of students, and the teachers are excellent at tailoring their methods of instruction to appeal to individual learning abilities. On top of all that, everyone seems to genuinely have fun while they take our children from their 'elementary' mindset and help them mature in their social and scholastic skills.
It is a growing school and has come a long way, but could use some help with materials and rooms they need so bad.
Columbiana Middle School has excellent leadership in the Principal and Asst. Principal. Teachers are excellent, and this shows through their caring attitude toward the students.
I love the small town community! The administration and faculty are very accessible and open to communicate with parents.
I love my class sizes. Over the years I've seen the school improve in its consistency and dedication to student achievement in both academic and social areas. The administration is strict but the rules are aimed at student safety and professionalism. The floors are always shining!
The school provides great structure while allowing the kids to experience new freedoms. It has the qualities you look for in a small town school.
CMS is a safe and friendly environment where a student can learn life-long skills in order to suceed.
I love CMS because this school is full of dedicated teachers and administrators that go above and beyond to make sure that students are successful high schoolers.
Most of our kids are fun, respectful, positive, and unspoiled. They want to learn and be challenged to excel. They don't always realize just how wonderful and smart they are compared to other schools in the county, but these are exceptional kids who just need someone to believe in them and push them to be their best.
CMS is an academically challenging, safe supportive environment where students are prepared for high school and for a successful life full of learning.
I'm not a parent, but I do teach at this school. I've been there less than 5 years, and there is room for improvement, although we have improved in some areas drastically. Right now, we are becoming overcrowded, our discipline system is hitting major walls in consistency, and we are making AYP on our tests. We have both poor and wonderful teachers.
