I like Columbus Elementary School especially excellent teachers like Mrs. Hande, Mrs. McCarty, Mrs. Nunez, Ms. Shahbasian, Mrs. MacInnes, Mrs. Pittman, and Mr. Cena. My kids are doing well in school because of their hard work and dedication. Thanks teachers and staff!!

I am the parent of a kindergartener that currently attends Columbus Elementary. I have found my child's teacher, Mrs. Kugel, to be very effective and experienced at teaching kindergarten. My son always has something positive to say about her, and through my personal interaction, I believe she cares very much for her students' well being and learning. I would agree with the previous reviewer that the front office can be stand-offish and are not very helpful, but then again they deal with a lot of parents that do not speak english very well. The school attracts a large immigrant population. I also agree with the drop off situtation, which can be hectic , with a diligent police presence. Don't park illegally unless you want a ticket. Hopefully things improve when the construction is done.

Both my sons have attended kindergarten last year at this school, and I have to say that I am so pleased and so happy about the outcome. I see how well my boys are reading and writing. I have to say it is all because of their teachers Mrs. Firstman and Mrs. Janosko they are the best ever. And because of them my boys are so looking forward going to the first grade. But after reading some of the comments which some parents have written I have to agree that the cafeteria food can go a little better (specially for some picky eaters). Other than that so far very happy with the school. The staff and the most with the principal. We are very much looking forward for a new year and a new start.
