Elementary School Timetable

Columbia International School incorporates a unique elementary program that provides students with an English immersion curriculum, blended with a Japanese curriculum suggested by the Ministry of Education in Japan for Japanese citizens.
In this way we will develop their fluency in both English and Japanese, and develop an international perspective and understanding while maintaining their identity as Japanese citizens.
Subjects are taught through an integrated approach in a small collaborative class enabling much closer teacher-pupil contact.

■Message from Teacher

The elementary division at Columbia International School is a tightly knit community.  Our small class size ensures that each student gets individual attention and ample opportunity to participate in classroom activities.  We offer a challenging curriculum in a safe and supportive educational environment where students succeed socially, emotionally, and academically.  The dedicated teachers focus on each child as an individual and guide each student to reach their potential.
The students at Columbia are excited to arrive at school each day.  Our day is filled with many interactive experiences that allow students to apply and practice their skills. It is wonderful to see the students so excited about learning!  The students develop strong friendships with their classmates as they learn to support each other and cooperate in work and play.  The elementary division has a great deal of energy and creativity; it is continuing to grow and develop each and everyday.  I am delighted to be a part of the elementary division at Columbia International School.
Please come for a visit!  You can be sure of a warm and enthusiastic welcome!
