Association. If you are alumni or know of anyone who
graduated here within our 53-year existence, please tell
them to sign up on our website.
Every student who has graduated from our school has
played a big part in the rich history of St. Columba. It is
our endeavor to not only keep this history alive but to
continue building it with our current students and those
yet to come.
Alumni will be added to a special email list and receive
all St. Columba news, alumni updates, and notices about
school events. The first St. Columba Alumni get together
for those 21 years and older will be held on Friday, April
