Last week, our seniors came together at dawn, watching the sunrise to kick off their final year with excitement and smiles! A big thank you to Mr. Farber and Mr. Mathias for making this special event possible! 🌄😎🏫

Even the sky stood with the Tide to show support for breast cancer awareness. In October we wear pink!

Proud to stand together on Pink Out Day! 💖

Today, Mr. Blair’s local history students had the opportunity to explore an 18th century home at Historic Rock Ford! They discussed colonial and revolutionary themes while getting a real view of life in the 1700s.

Fire Fridays at CHS are never something to miss! For this experiment, Mr. Zettlemoyer's class trapped flammable gas from a spray bottle into bubbles from a mixture of water and dish soap. Students soaked their arms in water, then picked up the bubbles and held a lighter close. This heated up the gas and caused them to burn! The water in the bubbles and on the hands captures the heat.

Engineering with our heads instead of our minds in STEM Exploration! Students were tasked with building the sturdiest spaghetti tower, and this student certainly got creative!

Congratulations to Kayla Hess! She was awarded a Senator's Citation from Senator Aument for her disc golf accomplishments. Go Kayla, we are proud of you!

Hill Campus Students and Families - Picture Day is Monday!

Just some Hill Campus teachers dressed as Adam Sandler for today's Homecoming Spirit Day!

Today 8th graders from the Hill braved the rainy weather to visit Heritage Creek Farms in Mount Joy. They learned about seed distribution in pumpkins, kinetic energy in rope-making, and all about livestock feed. The chickens were a huge hit!

The past few days, Mr. Blair’s world history classes attempted to draft and model some of Leonardo Da Vinci’s inventions. These students are real Renaissance learners!

Hill Campus Biology students went to Longwood Gardens to practice field observations, witness pollinators in action, and observe plant adaptations, including the Century Plant that only blooms every 15 years and is over 25 ft tall! The students represented Columbia Borough School District well!

Ms. Ohrel's Biology classes researched, designed, and built solar water stills to collect fresh water.

Crimson Tide volleyball fans come out and support our team as they compete against the Blazers from Lancaster Mennonite! If you can't make it in person, follow the link below to the HudlTV livestream. https://fan.hudl.com/usa/pa/columbia/organization/25253/columbia-high-school

Mr. Farber’s urban legend and paranormal class recently researched famous ghost stories just in time for fall to decorate the hallways!

Today marked the 104th Mifflin Ceremony! Thanks to our Taylor and Hill Campus students for doing a great job with the music and poetry!

Students from Taylor and the Hill Campus came together today to celebrate unity and tradition at the 104th Annual Mifflin Service. A beautiful reminder of the strength in our community! 💙 #MifflinService #TaylorCampus #HillCampus
