Todd’s favorite thing about Columbus Academy
“CA is an amazing place to work! From the beautiful campus to the wide range of educational resources, this school provides a wonderful environment to teach and learn. Having said that, my favorite part of CA is the students. I have always enjoyed working with middle school students, but my new campus-wide position allows me to work with students from all three divisions on a daily basis and I am constantly amazed by their kindness, intellectual curiosity and wide-range of talents.”
