Welcome To Columbia Schools!

Welcome to Columbia Unit School District #4 where education is second to none!  CUSD#4 is located just minutes away from St. Louis and serves approximately 2100 students ranging from preschool through twelfth grade.  The district operates four school facilities:  Eagleview Elementary (Preschool through Grade 1), Parkview School (Grades 2-4), Columbia Middle School (Grades 5-8), and Columbia High School (Grades 9-12.)  The community of Columbia strives on high expectations and a rich tradition of excellence and “hometown” pride.

The school year is filled with high expectations for not only academic excellence, but also for maintaining high standards of character.  As your superintendent, I can assure you that I will lead the district toward reaching optimal levels of performance.  With parents, students, and teachers working together as a team, student success will soar.

It is our hope that this website provides a snapshot of the great things happening in our school district – from providing general information to celebrating our student and school accomplishments.   The community of Columbia truly “bleeds blue” and has always fully supported the school district in its pursuit for excellence and continual improvement.

Best wishes to a great school year!

We started the second day of the Illinois State FFA Convention by attending Session 3. After we attended the session, we had Cracker Barrel for lunch with the S...tate Degree recipients family. We attended the 4th session and listened to the Illinois State FFA Vice President Eric Wisely's retiring address. His speech was about when there is a special moment in your life don't break the silence, sit back and embrace it so that you can reflect on your actions and learn from them. During the 4th session FFA member Lucas Schneider received his State FFA Degree! We had dinner at Cozy Dogs and then everyone had a fun evening doing some chapter bonding at Knights Action Park!
