We began our children's Catholic education in San Diego before moving to Durango. Our four children attended St. Columba from 1st grade through 6th before we relocated to St. Louis. It was an absolutely fantastic school and all of our children would have attended through 8th grade had we not relocated as a career move. Sister Edith was the principal while we were there, but I understand she and Sister Kevin have since retired.
good school, teaches you diciplin and how to be a good person throughout life. I have gone to St. Columba all my life and would never go to public school.
I had 2 girls that went to St. Columba before we moved out of state. St. Columba far exceeds the standards for education, compassion, respect, and parent involement in comparrison with other schools. It is obvious that the teachers really care about education and the students. My girls still miss the teachers they had.
I have had 3 kids graduate from St. Columba. Not only did they get a great education, but they were taught to be decent human beings and to care about other people besides themselves. I just wish they had a high school.
I went to St. Columba for 3 years then switched. It is a great school for kids who are at an average learning level, but for kids who are above or below average I would'nt recommend this school. They don't have any advanced classes or resource classes.
My son has attended St. Columba from preschool to 8th grade. It is a top-notch school with great staff. He and most of the other children who attend score well above the national and state average is all subjects.
