"For the first time in his life he loves school."

"Last year at this time, my son’s school situation was a complete nightmare. Before my son started kindergarten, he was an extremely happy, self-confident child with a brilliant imagination. After 3 years of both public and private schooling, my once vibrant, happy child was miserable with low self esteem and depression.

Words cannot express how grateful I am to have found Columbia Academy. During his first 3 years of school, he seemed to be lost in a dark, hostile jungle and now, thanks to Columbia Academy, my happy vibrant child is back! For the first time in his life he loves school. For the first time in his life, his teachers genuinely love him and care about his individual needs for learning. For the first time in his life, he is receiving validation and acceptance for who he is in an environment outside the home. His self confidence is soaring.

Academically, he is excelling rapidly. But more importantly, as a person, he is growing into the remarkable young man I always knew he could become."
