  • Columbia Heights Public Schools serves learners from birth through adulthood. Our goal is to provide our students with the skills, knowledge, tools and support they need to excel both in and out of the classroom and to provide them with a strong foundation that will ensure further success in life. 

    We are here to assist new students and families with the adjustment to a new school, community, and possibly a new country. CHPS serves the communities of Columbia Heights, Hilltop and the southern third of Fridley. Families outside of this area may apply for open enrollment.

Open Enrollment

  • If you are not a resident within the Columbia Heights Public School district you may still be able to have your student(s) register in one of our schools. Minnesota Statute 124D.03 allows all Minnesota's public school students the opportunity to apply to attend a school outside of the student's home district by open enrolling. Families are encouraged to apply before January 15 of each year to have the best chance of being admitted to one of our schools.
