Columbus High School Reviews
Rating 4.1 out of 5 848 reviews
I absolutely loved attending Columbus High School. I was very prepared for college during these four years. The teachers and faculty do their best to guide all students on the right path. They help even when they are busy and they always make a time for you if you need to talk to someone. The academics at this school have prepared me for the next chapter. Whether it for college, military or into the workforce. They allow us to be independent yet help us when needed. The sports are amazing, there is a variety of things to do at this school and we excel well. The school is in a perfect safe location and very easy to find your classes. Not only did I love the teachers and faculty but the students there are amazing as well. The school is very diverse and creative as allowing everyone to feel heard and seen.
I had a neutral experience while attending Columbus High School. The facilities were worn because the school is decades old, and the teachers are the best in all of Muscogee County School District, apart from a few. If you want to be involved in a school that excels at college readiness, then Columbus High School is the way to go. It was once the 2nd best high school in America and is now #75 in the national rankings. There is a large array of AP classes the select from and the teachers know how to teach the subjects. So If you're looking for an academic experience then Columbus Highschool is the way to go.
Columbus High School offers a comprehensive academic program with a diverse range of extracurricular activities. The faculty is dedicated and experienced, providing students with a supportive learning environment. Although the school encourages student collaboration and cooperation, the student climate here can be best described as slightly toxic.
