So, How Does PTCO Support Teachers and Students? 

MISSION STATEMENT: Columbia Elementary PTCO connects students, families, staff, and the downtown Colorado Springs community to create a welcoming environment that fosters academic and emotional growth. We are committed to a positive, inclusive culture that embraces diverse ideas and ensures all voices are valued.

The Columbia Elementary School's PTCO has a long standing tradition of working together to fundraise and support the school, our staff and our students. Throughout the year, we support appreciation events, classroom supplies, field trips, special projects, community events, and more.  

Curious about how this money is spent?  Have ideas for fundraising? Want to lend a hand? Come to our monthly meetings at 6:30 p.m. on the second Wednesday of every month.  Free childcare on site will be available.  Join us before the meeting for a free family dinner at 5:30 p.m.

Our primary communication channel during the school year is Class Dojo - look for our events and announcements in your feed!
