Columbia Central High School

Columbia Central High School is a NCA Accredited High School in full compliance with the mandates of "No Child Left Behind" and "Education Yes". For the 2006-07 school year, CCHS received a letter grade of "B" on our State Report Card that measures academic success. We have proudly introduced two advanced academic classes that have strengthened our curriculum offerings; Mathematics of Engineering, and Advanced Placement Biology are now part of a challenging academic offering at Columbia Central High School.

The academic, social, and athletic accomplishments are a great source of pride for our students, staff, and community. We are also especially proud of our Band, Drum Line, Leadership Class, and the other co and extra curricular activities and organizations that represent our school well.

We take the greatest pride in our students, staff, and facility; the majority of our staff has a Masters' Degree in their chosen teaching area; our students take pride in their school; strong academic demands are placed upon our students; athletic participation seeks to encourage positive growth through participation and good sportsmanship; and character building social activities are all integral parts of our daily routine.

Community pride and support in our school is very important to us; parents and community are welcomed into our facility and encouraged to take part in the educational process. Community groups and individuals are encouraged to use our facilities, including the newly constructed Columbia Community Fitness Center.

New members to the community are encouraged to drop in for a visit, or personal tour of the facility with the high school principal.

FIGHT SONG

There is a story behind this fight song.  About three decades ago, the music department decided the current song, based on the Marine Hymn, had run its course and the school needed something "more catchy". A committee, made up of Robert Spencer, Lee Brower and Phil Chelekis, researched other fight songs and decided the fight song from Central Michigan University was the best for us.  Mr. Chelekis adapted the music and the committee came up with the lyrics, loosely based on CMU.

Fight, Central, down the field
Fight for victory
Fight, Eagles, never yield
We're with you oh varsity

Onward with banners bold
In our hearts, you are the best,
Fight for the blue and gold,
Down the field for CHS,

Varsity! Varsity!
Eagles, we're proud of that nickname!

Hear our song!
Loud and strong!
Central is going to win this game.

Come on and ... (repeat)

Listen to our fight song
