The best parts of my experience at Cooper is having a welcoming community where it is easy to start conversations with everyone you meet and having teachers who are willing to help with any questions I have. The worst part of my experience at Cooper is when the lock down accidentally went off and caused many many students to panic. What I would like to see change is a bigger parking lot so parents don't steal my spot when events are happening in the lower or middle school.

I have been at John Cooper since pre-K and it has been such a wonderful experience. The teachers and staff are so helpful and really care about their students. They are always there for students to come in and get extra one-on-one help before or after school. There are many different electives and clubs you can join that make John Cooper so fun and enjoyable. I have truly enjoyed my time here at the John Cooper school.

Our family has had an exceptional experience at this school, where our daughter attended both middle school and upper school before recently graduating. The faculty and staff truly know their students and are deeply invested in their academic growth, character development, and overall well-being.One...
