We have had kids attending cooper for over 10 years and we consistently have teachers that care about our children and their education. Great school for a great community!

I have three kiddos in this school and I have been so impressed with how well they've handled the whole pandemic. I feel safe sending my children there and love how much they are succeeding. They do a great job of communicating with the parents and I can't stress enough how wonderful the teachers have been! It's worth getting a house in the district for this school. I would also recommend the afterschool activities (like the running club) as they've been great as well!

The principal is new and is completely uninvolved. Teachers expect parents to teach their children at home instead of going over the material thoroughly in class. Teacher to parent communication is horrible.
The school does not teach spelling. That's a vital building block towards a successful future. They should teach a traditional state curriculum.

Over an hour of homework every night plus "parent homework." No time for the family to spend. The homework causes a lot of frustration for both parent and child, as we are tired from our long days. I've had to google just to teach my child correctly.
The amount of homework is insane. After 7 hours of school children need a break. Home time should be family time. That too is very important for student success!

The teachers I've been directly exposed to seem to have their own best interest at heart. There's no passion. The students future isn't considered. They also expect parents to do their jobs for them. They do not communicate at all.

We loved Cooper! It's a "work hard, play hard" school! They have lots fun but lots of hard work too! Love it! Mr Young is a great principal and there are some really great teachers!
