Congratulations to Caitlynn Whiteman for representing North Columbus as the Teacher of the Year for the 2026-2027 school year!
4th Graders learned about what life was like during the American Revolution from Mr. Ginter.
We are proud to share that NCES has been named a 2026 Title I Reward School by the Georgia Department of Education! What does this mean? Each year, the state recognizes Title I schools that show the most growth in student learning. Reward Schools are the top 5% of Title I schools in Georgia for improving the performance of all students. The award is based on how much our students' scores on state tests improved over the last two years.
Thank you to our PIE, Vulcan, for treating our faculty and staff to a wonderful Chick-fil-A breakfast. Your generosity and support are truly appreciated, and we are grateful for your thoughtful contribution to our team.
Our NCES teachers and school leaders were excited to attend the Get Your Teach On Conference in Orlando, Florida, this summer, where they participated in high-quality professional learning focused on highly engaging, research-aligned instructional strategies and collaborated with educators from across the country. Additionally, this experience renewed their commitment to excellence in teaching while fostering professional growth, inspiration, and enthusiasm for the upcoming school year.
