The special education teachers were good for my kid. The principal has an attitude and she’s not friendly to parents and students. The leadership is awful based on what my neighbor says. Get new leadership.

Horrible staff today I went to 3rd grade ceremony in the cafeteria meet up with formal student who was siblings with the 3 grader. The formal student was with me the whole ceremony next to my side watching we were whispering while all the other parents where also chatting talking about her ceremony tomorrow. One of your staff member comes up to my child and tells them rudely to stop talking mean while she was next to me doing nothing wrong than whispering a child can’t talk no more or what.(If you don’t like your teaching job why even bother to go)This teacher had no right to come up to my child and tell her anything especially in a rude way! My child did not even wanted to continue talking.The whole ceremony she keep staring at my child this women wasn’t even a formal teacher of my child and never has been this past years.

It has been a very positive experience for my daughter. She's grown a lot emotionally and academically at Cooper. The teachers and admins really care and work very hard to make Cooper the best experience.

We are entering into our third year at Cooper and are excited at what next year will bring for our son. He has had some amazing teachers and has made some great friends. In two years, our daughter will start Kinder here and I'm looking forward to her experience. I'm involved on the PTA Board and there are some great families and teachers pouring their time and love into the school and kids. All of the staff are friendly and caring.

My daughter has experienced wonderful teachers and absolutely LOVES the new HOUSE SYSTEM! Each day she looks forward to learning new things. There are so many opportunities for tutoring as well as extracurricular activities at this school. Cooper Elementary.....what an awesome place for children to be engaged, challenged, and loved! Not only am I happy with this school my daughter is as well.

Staff and teachers were not nice and very rigid. They were yield my kid when I didn't go the right way to pick up my kid. Nobody told me that and she could let me know by a courtesy way instead of being angry to my kid.

This School is horrible!!! My child was anxious and depressed during her entire time and this school. The staff and teachers were bullies the the Asst. Principal was not better than the teachers and the Principal was never around and or willing to help or make a better learning environment for my child.My daughter would come home feeling defeated as though she was not smart enough and singled out because she was the new kid. The kids would pick on her and the school would do nothing. We did not even last a full school year before we moved her she is now thriving and doing well. Her grades have improved tremendously since switching her.

I am very happy with Copper Elementry. This is our first year at public school and it is a great school. The food is great according to my 8 yr. old and they keep me very well informed of her progress in school.

Terrible school! Don't recommend it at all! I want to move my kids to another school but don't want to cause them stress since they are in the middle of school year. I wish I could really get a hold of someone that can do something about it! Staff is very unfriendly the atmosphere is terrible! Principal is not even willing to help!
