Calvin - MS Ambassador

Calvin '30

"I enjoy Columbus Academy for a number of reasons. The first being the amazing campus. It’s always nice walking into the middle school with a view of the senior quad, and the bell atop Morris Hall. The second reason I love CA is because of the kind, and dedicated teachers working hard to support every student in their learning. The last of many reasons I love CA is because of smaller grade sizes. A smaller grade enables you know everyone in the grade. This year I was part of the fifth and sixth grade football team, I loved it!"

 

Franklin - MS Ambassador

Franklin '30

"My favorite class is Spanish because Mrs. Hall is really fun and we are learning a lot! I’m a part of Robotics Club, I play the viola and am on the football, basketball and lacrosse teams! My favorite lunch at CA is the ramen and pho bar!"

Layla - MS Ambassador

Layla '30

"I have made some great memories at CA! One that sticks out, and there are lots, but one that I have always remembered for some reason is making a chocolate cake in kindergarten. Of course there are also the school plays and field trips but I still remember that cake! I really like how Ms. Price, one of our middle school librarians, always recommends books for me. I really like scary short stories."

 

Nishika - MS Ambassador

Nishika '30

"This is my first year at CA! This school is amazing! No doubt you’ll enjoy it! My favorite class is probably social studies, since I really love to learn about new things! I played tennis last season, and now I’m playing basketball."

Henry - MS Ambassador

Henry '29

"One of my favorite CA memories is the Naval Battle in sixth grade social studies. I enjoy Spanish and reading and am interested in technology – using our MakerSpace to tinker, fix things and code. I play a lot of baseball, am on the Ohio Independence 13U league and umpire with little leagues in the area."

Olivia - MS Ambassador

Olivia '29

"Columbus Academy has opened many doors for me. I have made so many friends here and it really has been an amazing experience! My favorite class is science because we do a lot of fun activities and we learn a lot from them. The teacher is also super sweet too and a good teacher can really make a positive impact, if you don’t have a good teacher then you won’t want to learn. I love playing lacrosse and am a competitive dancer. Some people don’t consider dance as a sport, but it is maybe even harder than other sports because it requires lots of time and energy."

 

Rhea - MS Ambassador

Rhea '29

"I love to swim. My favorite class is math because everything has a reason. CA lunches are amazing, but my favorite one has to be perogies. Once at lunch, the little kids were dancing, so all the middle schoolers got up and started dancing with them. At CA, there are so many chances to explore new things, like robotics, which I love."

 

Shand '29

Shand '29

"I play on the middle school girls soccer team and this year we won the championship! It was truly an amazing experience to play with teammates and have such incredible coaches. My favorite subject is math because the teacher, Mr. Simpson, really helps kids understand the topics while making it fun. Lunch is great at Academy -- my favorite is breakfast for lunch."

 

Claire — MS Ambassador

Claire '28

"I was new in 6th grade and on my first day at CA everyone was so welcoming, it felt great! I play tennis and track for the school, and dance outside of school. I’m also very into theater – I’ve been a part of the middle school musical for the last couple of years and enjoy singing, dancing, and writing! Theater has taught me about teamwork, confidence and hard work."

Lawrence - MS Ambassador

Lawrence '28

"One of my many favorite teachers at CA is Dr. B, he Is very passionate about the soccer team and he is a great coach and a great teacher! I have been playing the violin since I was 4 so that is very important to me. The CA orchestra is very supportive of my passion for music and I have a very knowledgeable teacher I can ask for tips or advice. When I think about a favorite memory at CA, I have a thousand memories of small acts of kindness in the CA community. I cannot imagine a school with a better community."

Jude - MS Amabassador

Jude '28

"All my teachers are very kind and have their own distinct traits, which makes each class interesting and fun! As a new student, it was quite easy to fit in and adjust to the new school because of the welcoming and amazing community. I am a part of Academy's jazz band, and even though it starts almost an hour before school starts, the wonderful music created in the band room wipes away the feeling of being tired! CA is surrounded by awesome people, and it is a very good place to grow interests and explore many opportunities."
