Help Columbian through Direct Donation! 

We have been asked by several families who do not want to participate in fundraisers about giving directly to the PTO.  We DO have a direct donation option!  Any amount you would like to give is greatly appreciated! Download a Direct Donation form from the documents on this page- please return donations by mail or to your child's classroom or the school office.  

THANK YOU for supporting the PTO!
