Mouthwatering Elementary Schools in Columbus

Columbus School for Girls

"I first heard of CSG when I was a kid in Toledo and my school played them. They had a good reputation even then, statewide. Since then I married someone who went there, and learned more about it. Sweetie loved going there, got a great education, and still supports them. I have been to several events there and met many alums: wonderful, smart, strong women. The campus is beautiful, the teachers clearly love their jobs and the girls, and CSG looks to be the best place in central Ohio to get a college-prep education. Baby K might go there. I say might because it is outrageously expensive. So, start saving now. But it is worth it. There are so many opportunities at CSG (and there are scholarships.) The world is your oyster, and the support for students and alumni is impressive."

Jewish Community Center

"We've sent both of our children to JCC. Had a great experience, the staff are all very warm and friendly. Having lived in a couple different states, we've had quite a bit of experience at various daycares. By far Jewish Community Center is the best-of-the-best."

Maize Elementary

"Playground review only!Three playsets, plus some older metal stuff. Slides, climbing stuff. Baby K loved it. Several benches for tired parents. Behind the school, so you'll have to walk a bit from the parking lots, plus there is access to the neighborhood behind the school."

Meadow Park Children's Center

"A compassionate childcare environment. It is faith based (Christian affiliated); the staff are very dedicated to teaching the children to live and love as they (the staff) believe God/Jesus would love and interact with people.Lots of space, their campus is absolutely gorgeous and well structured.Very clean and safety conscious, they took lots of precaution during COVID-19's peak and are still very conscientious. Respectable!!"

Just North Christian Childcare

"My son has been going to OCCCC since February and we absolutely love it! It's small so the classes are small and I don't ever worry that he may get lost in the shuffle. The teachers are amazing and so sweet and they're great with the kids. I was so nervous to put him in child care but they made me feel super comfortable and I have no worries when I drop him off each day. It's such a relief to know he is safe and well taken care of while I am working."

Dublin Community Preschool

"I wish I could give 6 stars! My second child is starting her last year here. The directors, teachers and parents are all amazing! I know my kids are not only learning, but they are REALLY cared for and the school has become like a second family and home to us. There is no better better preschool in Dublin!!!!"

Marburn Academy

"My daughter goes to Marburn and she likes it there. The school makes her excited to go into 8th grade"

Northwest Christian Child Care

"I've worked in childcare before and finding a childcare facility for my son was a tough decision. Our first choice facility was full (infant rooms have long wait lists!) and we had a rough experience with another drop-in facility-- so I was anxious to try a new place but I'm so glad we lucked into a part-time opening at NWCC when my son was 6 months old. (He's now nearing a year old and is at NWCC full time). The staff at NWCC keep us updated and care about our son. They've been great at listening and communicating with us and I'd recommend them to anyone in need of a childcare facility. NWCC uses the Tadpoles app to record daily activities-- we receive daily email updates and have downloaded the connected app. The staff records daily activities (foods/liquids, diapers, naps, extra notes) and send photos via Tadpoles. I'll often get a photo of my happy son playing in the middle of the day-- an awesome surprise when I'm sitting at my desk and wondering how he's doing!"

Guidepost Montessori at Worthington

"Our toddler has been enrolled here for a year and we can't say enough positive things about it. The school is run by an incredibly dedicated, competent, and caring administrative team who are constantly introducing programs and initiatives to better the school. The teachers are also all extremely caring and all receive Montessori training, all of which have contributed to our son's growth and his love for attending school every day. We only have experience with the toddler program so far, but the same seems to be true for the infant and elementary programs as well."

Grove City Christian School

"Seems like a good school. I donate blood here when they have the drives going on and the place is clean and typical school vibes."

Madison Christian School

"We absolutely love Madison Christian. Both my kids have been there since kindergarten and I cannot imagine another school for them to be in. They have strict code of conduct and plays high expectations on the children. It's so much better than I had ever expected for my children's school experience. We have always had amazing teachers and Mrs. White does a great job as principal. Turnover is low and the teachers and staff really show that they love what they do and where they work."

Columbus Academy

"My review is biased so I will keep it short and sweet. This is an independent preK-12 school founded in 1911. Originally founded as an all boys school and has since introduced co-ed in the late '90s. My son has attended since Kindergarten and we enjoy the schools traditions and community. The small class sizes and close knit community on top of a challenging curriculum makes this a must attend school. The school's tution is not for the light hearted."

Shepherd Church of the Nazarene

"Hubby and I have been attending about a month now and consider this our new home church. Nicest people you would ever want to meet are here and there are so many impressive ministries happening. Great worship music ...not too loud."

Little Tigers Preschool

"Little Tigers Preschool, Inc. has been at the same location for 36 years. Few early childhood centers can say that and our daughter went there and her children and working on another generation that are planning to attend. Best early childhood center in Pickerington."

Smoky Row Children's Center

"Smoky Row has been providing quality childcare for over 30 years. Some of the current teachers even attended as children! Their commitment to the well-being, health, and happiness of the children in their care and the families that entrust them is beyond rival. The teachers are incredible and their dedication to their jobs shows through every day. If your child is enrolled at Smoky Row, you can be confident they are in great hands!"
