Clifton Public Schools

Christopher Columbus Middle School serves Grades 6, 7 and 8 and is home to our diverse student body of over 950 students and 129 staff members. Here, teachers and administrators work collectively to provide educational opportunities that equip learners with readiness for the 21st Century. Our curriculum provides a comprehensive and varied learning experience. Our strong  PBSIS program supports the emotional and academic growth of both students and staff.  Nick-named "CHAMPS," the acronym stands for “Caring, Helpful, Accountable, Motivated, Polite, and Successful.” We believe these values are the difference between “good” and “great,” and help students succeed in all areas they choose.
