BOARD OF EDUCATION
Annually, the Board of Education establishes district-wide goals for school improvement. In addition to the district's goals, school improvement teams at each building develop and implement goals specific to the needs of their students. Renewed efforts to coordinate the curriculum and programs are underway. By determining the desired "Columbia graduate profile" or the essential skills needed to graduate, we are working to develop our instructional opportunities to aid students in achieving those necessary skills.

Approved Budget 2008-2009

MEETINGS
Meetings are held on the second Monday of each month. Also a second meeting (*) in October and February is reserved for board study. Meetings will be held in the Columbia Community Room at 7:30 pm.

Some of the meetings may be held in other buildings in the district.  Notice will be published when this takes place.  The Administration Offices are located at 11775 Hewitt Road, Brooklyn, MI 49230.
The telephone number is (517) 592-6641.

Our Mission Statement
The Columbia School District, in partnership with the community,
will provide a safe and positive learning environment, which will prepare
all students to contribute and compete in a global society.
