Powered by AMP/edu

Our school is powered by the AMP/edu ecosystem — a unified, modern learning platform that strengthens classroom instruction and enhances every student's learning experience. AMP brings together curriculum, tools, and resources in one cohesive system, helping teachers deliver engaging, consistent instruction and giving students confidence with a well-supported, high-quality education.

Core Subjects & Electives

At Columbus Humanities Arts and Technology Academy, we provide a standards-based curriculum that teaches students skills for college and career readiness. Our curriculum is built on the Ohio Learning Standards (OLS) for English Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, Electives (Art, Career Tech Exploration (Middle School), Character Education & Social-Emotional Learning, Music, Physical Education, and Writing (Middle School), Technology). Electives allow students to explore new interests and develop real-world skills beyond the core curriculum. These courses nurture creativity, curiosity, and personal growth in every grade.

Art

Students explore color, line, shape, and texture through hands-on projects that build confidence and artistic expression.

Career Tech Exploration

Middle school students explore future careers through hands-on activities and real-world problem-solving, introducing them to potential pathways in business, technology, and skilled trades.

Character Education & Social-Emotional Learning

Using the Character Strong curriculum, students engage in daily lessons that build emotional awareness, empathy, resilience, and responsible decision-making.

Music

Students develop rhythm, pitch, and melody through singing, instruments, and movement-based music activities that foster creative expression and listening skills.

Physical Education

Students participate in structured games and fitness activities that support teamwork, coordination, and lifelong healthy habits.

Writing (Middle School)

Middle schoolers build writing fluency and voice through structured practice in both academic and creative formats, strengthening communication skills across subjects.

Instructional Model

Our school is built on a strong foundation of high expectations for academic achievement for all students. Our instructional model has four key components to achieve strong academic results:

Individualized Instruction

Students participate in a variety of learning activities each day that individualize instruction for each subject area. Students receive whole class instruction, small group instruction, and individual instruction with teachers, technology and other curricular tools.

Properly Certified & Licensed Teachers

Our teachers meet the educator qualification requirements outlined in the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA): Bachelor’s degree, grade-level teaching license/certificate & ability to demonstrate subject area expertise. Our teachers are supported by trainers and participate in continuous, research-based professional development. Our teachers are accountable for student learning and rewarded for high quality performance.

More Time on Task

Our students receive double the instruction in ELA and Math to provide a strong foundation for all learning. Beginning with full-day Kindergarten, our school also follows a longer school day and school year than many other schools.

Short Cycle Assessments

Student knowledge of academic standards is assessed formally and informally in short cycles by each teacher. Our teachers adjust class-level and individual instruction based on student performance in these frequent intervals.
