📣 Our next meeting is March 11, 2026, at Columbia
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 on the second Wednesday of every month. Free childcare on site will be available. Join us before the meeting for a family dinner at 5:30 p.m.
For some of our students, breaks from school can cause greater food insecurity. To help make sure they have enough when they're away from Columbia, we are collecting nonperishable, easy to eat items from March 2-12 for distribution before break! Click here to see our Amazon wishlist and watch this space for information about volunteering to help us pack bags March 13!
"...King Soopers Community Rewards program. This program makes fundraising easy by donating to local organizations based on the shopping you do every day. Once you link your Card to an organization, all you have to do is shop at King Soopers and swipe your Shopper’s Card..."
