Calling Columbia families!  Learn more about opportunities for your children at Columbia’s own K-8 and early childhood programs at drop-in events on each campus this month. 

The School at Columbia (TSC) is Columbia’s K-8 school serving children of University faculty and staff and neighborhood families. TSC’s vibrant and diverse school community features an innovative and academically rigorous curriculum enhanced by its unique connection to Columbia.

Since its founding in the 1930s by Columbia faculty members, Tompkins Hall Nursery & Childcare Center has provided exceptional, play-based early childhood education for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. Its inquiry-driven approach nurtures curiosity, creativity, and a lasting love of discovery. 

Stop by to discover what these programs can offer your family, ask questions, and enjoy some coffee and light snacks.
