Both this school and the students are amazing. I have been attending the John Cooper School for nine years and I don't intend on leaving any time soon. Throughout my nine years, I have developed a love for learning. I am who I am today because of this school. JCS has both amazing academic and fine arts programs. The teachers and staff are very kind and supportive and the students are very nice. I highly recommend the John Cooper School for your family :)

I have gone to the John Cooper School since 7th grade and I am now a freshman. I would say that Cooper is very easy to adjust to and has a wide variety of people to befriend. I play basketball and baseball which makes it much easier to find people to hang out with since there are so many sports and clubs to choose from

As a former employee I can say It is not the best place to work, there is a lot of unfair competition, there is no healthy environment, and working as a team is not an option, the assistants are treated as one more piece of furniture that moves it or puts it at their convenience. The leaders are con...

The John Cooper School was the worst school experience for our child. The school environment is unsupportive of children who are neurodivergent. The administrators are especially unsupportive; they use punishment as a way to “correct” students’ misbehavior - when there are often teachable moments, t...
