Mixed feelings about this school. It seemed great, my daughter (3 yrs old) loved going here. She…read morewas enrolled for about 4-5 months until i removed her due to the over-use of TV. They are put in front of the tv multiple times a day, which is not what i was told they do. When i brought it up to the admin, they said "what would you like for her to do instead while the other kids are watching tv?" Which could possibly have my child feeling excluded and distant, i wasn't ok with their problem solving. There is so much to do for a wind down or transitional time for one activity to another. For an example: puzzles, books, audiobooks, coloring, etc.. I have worked in daycare/preschools before and never seen TV used as an activity, especially not multiple times throughout the day. Also, the only way i found out about this was from me looking into the provided camera system (i wouldn't have ever known what was actually going on at school if not). It made me feel uncomfortable because 1) I'm paying for education and socializing not a TV pacifier and 2) we are selective/strict on screen time and what shows are being consumed. They tried to cover it up and say it's only their zoo phonics program but they lied because my child says different. She was coming home talking about tv shows we never shown to her such as Mickey Roadsters. They literally have TVs in every single room except the cafeteria and playground.. Now, the major positive i can say is my child was super excited to go everyday. She did learn her ABC phonics while there which I'm happy about. I know there is learning done but i wish the day wasn't focused around the TV.

I worked at Columbia for about six months and that was the worst six months I ever had in my life , Columbia treats their staff member so poorly! We were always understaffed and always treated like crap from other staff members including the MOT!! Which is known as janitor people at Columbia Elementary School!! I was a yard duty at that school and seeing how many kids got bullied beat up on and in fistfight at such a young age and that school never did anything, no follow through no punishments nothing just sent right back out to recess!! it disgusts me!!! I saw so many concerned parents because they had no idea what was going on at that school because the school does not inform parents about anything!!! Usually at an elementary school it's three strikes you're out when it comes to discipline I have never seen a child control the teachers so badly in my life just because his mom and dad worked at that school!! I also worked with a few elderly people that were so beyond kind hearted and we're poorly treated like garbage! The janitors also like to walk around and say that it is not their job to pick up garbage and to do janitor things! My main concern here is that there has been so many staff members children, parents that have been concerned about their kids in the school and everyone contacts the superintendent for help and the superintendent will not do a single thing about anything!!! The principal at that school don't even get me started with that one I have heard her say so many mean things to children telling children to shut up telling children they're stupid I have no idea how that principal is a principal!!! I will continue to post bad reviews so people can read them and see how the school is and they can continue to take my review down but I will continue to post and continue to get it out there because this school draws so much concern to me there's so much more in depth that I would like to say but that would be cutting into children's privacy and I would not want to do that for the privacy of the parent and the children!!! By far the worst school ever!!

This school is precariously held together by yarn, passive-aggressive "conversations," and unpaid labor. Even if you are parenting on easy mode with a picture-perfect neurotypical child, you should know that this school pays their teachers very little, loses them frequently, and then often scrambles to fill that teaching position at the last minute. They do not magically find someone with a teaching credential to fill that job, they just find someone from their in-crowd who says yes. Your child could start their school year with a teacher who has no real background in education and standards outside of Waldorf's extremely insular world. However, if you happen to have a neurodivergent child, I would urge you to stay away from this school. My son was attending the early childhood program but I was frequently being called to pick him up early for behavior issues. I was in constant communication with his teacher and others at the school begging for help and direction. We were trying everything we could at home, but my kid was clearly struggling, and no one quite understood why. Despite supposedly being early childhood experts, Waldorf teachers and staff NEVER ONCE mentioned that maybe we should get an evaluation for autism/ADHD/etc. Instead they recommended diet changes and reiki. I wish I were joking. This cost us years of figuring out what was really going on. Eventually, they "asked us" to leave the school (but not until after I had finished a really big project for their Halloween production!!!). We were strongly socially ostracized afterwards, in an already small town. They have absolutely no support services available and seem to have no interest in providing them. A parent to a Waldorf student who works locally as a special education teacher in public schools even volunteered to help provide some support for students with special needs at Sierra Waldorf. The school turned her down! Waldorf schools are based on the works of Rudolf Steiner, who held some pretty problematic beliefs, including eugenics. I guess Sierra Waldorf is staying true to their roots. Before we joined the school, Waldorf looked a bit like a cult to me based on the behavior of the people I knew who were already in it. Now that I've seen it on the inside, that conviction stands stronger than ever.
