Columbia School District
Home of the Golden Eagles: Empowering Learners. Achieving Success.
Last night, our Columbia Board of Education and staff went claw-to-claw with Napoleon at the annual Great American Crab Races at the Eagle's Nest. While we unfortunately came up a little short and had to surrender the coveted Golden Crab to Napoleon for the year, the real win was the community turnout and funds raised for athletics at both Columbia and Napoleon School Districts as well as the Tom Collins Spirit Trail and Napoleon Lions Club! Fun was had by all!
