History
Columbus International High School was founded by a plethora of district staff, parents, and community members in early 2010 with a main goal to integrate language immersion within taught subjects and give students the opportunity to learn a multitude of languages all while keeping an ordinary high school experience. International started off very small and were first housed at Fort Hayes. In 2011, the school moved to a building (which is now called home by Columbus Spanish Immersion School) as a temporary facility until they moved to the former North High School from 2012 to 2019. In 2013, International changed their name and were known as Columbus North International School widely due to being in North High School's building and having integrated 7th and 8th grade, being housed in a much larger building. The school changed their name back to Columbus International High School in 2021 after discontinuing 7th and 8th grade. International currently calls the Brookhaven High School building home after the school closed in 2014. The building was renovated before and is currently still being renovated, having most recently replaced the floors in 2023.

Columbus International High School currently shares their building with Columbus Global Academy.
