Columbia Academy is a private school providing exceptional care and instruction for children. Columbia Academy recognized a need for an enriched Junior Kindergarten program designed for children who do not meet the Maryland State Department of Education acceptance date for Kindergarten. Our goal is to teach children how to learn. The Columbia Academy's philosophy is to provide students with educational tools and experiences that will stimulate their desire to learn while fostering respect for human values, which will help them become productive citizens in the classroom as well as the real world. Through academics and play, we encourage students to recognize the importance of making appropriate social choices and having and demonstrating respect for individuals. Good communication skills are the foundation for solid relationships with peers, teachers, and family.
