Hello Little Eagles!

My name is Mr. Jackson, and I am the proud lead principal at Columbia Elementary Campus.  I hope you all had a wonderful summer break and are ready to start a new school year! I would like to welcome back our returning students as well as those joining our school for the first time. Our dedicated teachers and staff members have been working very hard in their classrooms to welcome you back to a safe and intellectually stimulating learning environment. 

We cannot wait to see you again in our hallways and classrooms. Please refer to various documents and announcements on our school website (www.myeagles.org) or use the Rooms platform to connect with me and your classroom teacher(s).  These will help keep everyone informed on school announcements and upcoming events. 

Columbia Elementary Campus offers a wide variety of educational opportunities for our Little Eagles. Parents and guardians are encouraged to “opt-in” to these wonderful academic and extra-curricular activities by filling out the information in PowerSchool. Additionally, we ask that all families complete the educational benefit forms so that Columbia School District can continue to receive appropriate funding for our programs. 

As we step into this new academic year, let’s embrace the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead with enthusiasm and determination.  Together, we will create a vibrant and inclusive learning community where every student can feel empowered to achieve success.  While we move into a new year, please feel free to reach out to our office staff and classroom teachers for any information regarding a smooth and successful transition back.  We look forward to seeing you at our Back-to-School Bash on Tuesday, August 25th, from 5:00 - 6:30 PM. 

Cheers for a wonderful start to the year! 

Mr. Derek Jackson

Lead Principal
