Christopher Columbus High School Reviews
Rating 4.6 out of 5 774 reviews
Coupling career readiness, student involvement, and its vast professional network, Christopher Columbus High School provides the best high school experience any young person can ask for.
Some of my best parts were the athletics and facilities as we are very advanced in those areas. The teachers overall are good but there are some teachers that I believe shouldn’t be influencing a child’s mind
Embarking on your senior year at Christopher Columbus High School is like diving into an epic finale of a beloved series - thrilling, nostalgic, and utterly unforgettable. The school, a buzzing hub of tradition and youthful energy, sets the stage for a year where every moment counts. Teachers, a spirited crew of mentors, challenge and inspire, pushing students to conquer academic peaks while the specter of exams and college applications adds an exhilarating tension to the air. Yet, it's the pulse of school spirit, the roar of the crowd at games, the thunderous applause at performances, and the shared laughs and whispers in the hallways that truly define the experience. Senior year is a whirlwind of memorable "lasts" - each event, a milestone; every moment, a snapshot for the memory books. Friendships deepen, forming bonds that promise to outlast the fleeting high school years.
My experience at Christopher Columbus High School was one I will remember for the rest of my life. These past 4 years I have learned a lot not only in the classroom but outside the classroom as well. I've made friends that will last a lifetime and also mentors that have taught me so much that I know once I go to college I could always ask them to help me with any problems I have in the future. Christopher Columbus should always be people's top choice when wanting to go to a good High School. Not only is it a good school right now but when I become an alumni I will have so many connections because this school shows and represents what the Brotherhood is really about.
At Christopher Columbus, multiple things can happen. At this school, you'll have a connection with everyone like nowhere else. Even if you meet someone outside of Columbus but you both are close to the school then there is always an automatic connection. Being able to say that you go to Christopher Columbus High School is an honor. I have had many instances that I have encountered someone who either goes to the school or is an alumnus and even though we might not know each other, I still feel a great bond with them. Yes, there will be moments where you'll go through ups and downs but not everything is perfect. The only change that I would like to see is that there are more events where we can bond more with our parents or family like a dinner or breakfast together. I know I am very lucky to go to this school and will be glad to say that I graduated from this school in the future
I value my high school experience at CCHS as my best educational experience thus far. Not only has my school set me on an academic path to ensure my success in the future, I have made friendships that will last a lifetime.
Attending Christopher Columbus High School has been a transformative experience that I will cherish for a lifetime. From day one, I felt embraced by what can only be described as the GREATEST brotherhood ever. The camaraderie and sense of community were palpable, creating an atmosphere of support and motivation.
Toughness forged us into young men without being overbearing. Teachers, coaches, and staff were skilled and committed, shaping academics and manhood. Their genuine guidance, focused on real-world applications, empowered me for the future.
Christopher Columbus High School has been more than just an educational institution for me; it has been a home, a nurturing environment, and a place where I found lifelong friendships and mentors. It has shaped me into a confident, compassionate, and responsible individual, and I am grateful for the experience.

Amazing Highschool. brotherhood like no other. Learn to care for others while having fun at the same time.
Where do I even start on my experience at the best school in South Florida. Christopher Columbus High-school became much more than just my High-school, it became a place where I would meet lifelong friends, get to know my teachers and staff, and most importantly have some of the best memories that would last me beyond a lifetime.
Christopher Columbus High School is an outstanding school. It is provides everything you need in order for you to be able to success in the university. The teachers try to help you reach your potentials. I truly enjoyed my time there.
Christopher Columbus High School is an all-boys school which has an extremely strong sense of community through their renown Marist brotherhood. This brotherhood is extremely apparent in a multitude of ways from past students becoming teachers to extremely generous donations from alumni such as Marcus Lemonis donation. Not only does the school have an extremely influential and supportive network, it also has numerous impressive facilities that allow for students to pursue their passion. For example, I am interested in pursuing an engineering career and I have access to the engineering facilities with brand new 3D printers, drones, and other tools to experiment with. While all the features mentioned so far are available to the entire school, there is also the added benefit of being a part of the MAS Family Honors Program. The program is one of the most academically intensive and enriching honors programs in South Florida. Christopher Columbus provides a perfect high school experience.
I'm a recent grad. Education can be fine, definitely varies from teacher to teacher, most are okay but you need to talk to them if you really want to learn something and not just scrape by. Extracurriculars are whatever/nonexistent unless you're into sports or broadcast journalism. College/career counseling are almost nonexistent (even for me, and I was in Mas and towards the top of the class).
I'm giving a one-star review primarily because of the school's culture. If you don't come in with some friends from middle school then you're almost definitely gonna struggle socially. Most people are really insular and the administration does nothing to discourage this. I made maybe two good friends there but got called the f-slur multiple times by others and was threatened a few times (rumors work fast I guess). I think you're better off somewhere cheaper (again, unless you wanna play sports). The Brothers can be nice, but the administration needs to address the culture.

As soon as I came out of my mothers womb, I was representing Columbus merchandise. My father, class of 1987, has always talked so highly of what was the foundation of his success. Christopher Columbus High School is where my father met his best men at his wedding, discovered his interest in engineering, and developed a strong understanding of his Catholic faith. These tools that Columbus provided him with has allowed him to succeed in not only the business wold, but in raising a family.
For me, Columbus has surpassed the hype that I have heard from my father and other alumni. We have a saying of "Brother hood for good", and I can vouch that this statement holds value. My peers have pushed me to become a better version of myself. My teachers have done a superb job of providing a curriculum that has broken barriers of what I thought my mind was capable of. I intend on sending my son to Columbus one day, where he can share the same experiences as my father, alumni, and I did.

Excellent school; has plenty of activities for everyone to get involve; teachers do care about your successes; amazing advisors
Christopher Columbus High School is the BEST school in South Florida! My experience has been amazing, from teachers, student body, activities, sports, academics; this school molds you into a well-rounded individual. The brotherhood here is amazing! I'm very grateful that my parents picked Christopher Columbus High School. Keeping the legacy was the best choice for me and my brothers!
Columbus is great when it comes to their teachers, facilities, counselors, and academics. The only flaw they have is the food, it's poor.
CCHS is an outstanding school. The teachers, counselors, and administrative staff are committed to ensuring that the students get the best academic experience. The school has the latest technology. It has sports, music, and a variety of clubs. No doubt, it is second to none.
