Attention Parents/Caregivers: In an effort to promote safety in our schools, the Columbia Borough School District will be conducting active intruder drills at all three buildings this week. These drills will allow our students and staff to practice safety procedures while also helping our district to become safer through the knowledge gained and areas for improvement we identify each time a drill is done. While the drill will have set simulations at each building, we will not be utilizing any simulated weapons or weapon sounds for the drill. Once the drill concludes, students and staff will return to the building from our rally (safe) points. As part of this drill, we will ask that parents and guardians not come to the building to pick-up students during this time. Prior to our active intruder drill, staff will discuss school safety with students, including the details of the armed intruder drill. If you have any questions, please contact the building.

Packets of information with more details about the tests, their impact on graduation, and the opt-out procedures were mailed home last week to the families of students scheduled to take or retake the exams this spring. If you would like to schedule a meeting with Mr. Kedney or your student’s school counselor to opt out of the test please call 717-684-7500 and speak with Mrs. Yohe to set the meeting up. For those students not taking the Keystones—school will be in session as normal on these days.

Columbia’s 2020-21 varsity wrestling team was short on numbers, but long on determination. The season started slowly as several matches were postponed due to COVID concerns at opposing schools. The other varsity winter teams had multiple games in before the wrestling team had its first match. Even though only three wrestlers finished the season, they were able to set a good foundation for the future. Two of those wrestlers are sophomores and one is a freshman. James Brady’s record was 10-9. He placed 10th in the L-L League Tournament and 6th in the Sectional Tournament. Stoudamire Campbell’s record was 19-8. He placed in the top 6 in his weight class in the Lancaster-Lebanon League Tournament, placed 3rd in the Sectional Tournament, and 5th at the District III Tournament. He is an alternate at his weight class for the Regional Tournament. He would have been a Regional qualifier except for limits due to the pandemic. Chris Sabino’s record was 4-12. Congratulations team on a great season!
