About our school

columbushumanitiesata.org school introduction

Columbus Humanities Arts and Technology Academy is a public charter school serving students in kindergarten through eighth grade in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio's state report card grades every public school in the state, and Columbus Humanities Arts and Technology Academy earned a 3-star Progress rating, the school's highest-rated dimension, meaning the state's own data shows students here are moving forward academically year over year.

Arts and technology are the foundation here. That means your child isn't sitting through a separate art class squeezed between math and lunch. The arts and technology are how students learn here. A history lesson becomes a performance. A science concept becomes a visual project. A writing assignment becomes a digital creation. They aren't enrichment extras. They're the method. When your child's creative instincts and academic growth move together, learning sticks. Beyond the classroom, students find their voice through free athletics, clubs, and real-world experiences that build confidence and leadership — because a full education includes knowing who you are, not just what you know.

It's a publicly funded school. There's no tuition, no fees, and no cost to families.

Free breakfast and lunch are available for enrolled students.
The school provides free transportation for eligible Columbus families.
No application fees, no uniforms to purchase, no hidden costs.

Columbus Humanities Arts and Technology Academy is located at 1333 Morse Rd, Columbus, OH 43229. Call (614) 261-1200. Find out more at columbushumanitiesata.org.
