Great education opportunities, nice staff members, and the absolute best place I know for your young and impressionable child to learn the largest assortment of absolutely foul racial slurs, red pilled ideals and insanely closeminded ideals about individuality and to always conform to majority and to ostracize all who still try to maintain logical and personal identity, here your child will have great experiences with close friends( that's if they are even able to make them) no offense to your child I bet they are wonderful individuals(that's probably the reason your trying to send them to this school) but here at cooper, the social environments bolsters tight knitted cliques and groups of judgmental children who usually outcast any one new or anyone that rivals their society-tailored ideals. when your child does find those whose they can grow close to, they will have someone to comfort them throughout the days of constant mental onslaught directed towards them by Their peers and upperclassmen, whether it is the aforementioned racial slurs or the social excommunication of others. Overall the best place for extroverted students with a very strong will and lack of need for affirmation of their peers.( and if not, kids with VERY supportive parents and the number to a good therapist)

We moved to Great Falls partly because of its reputation for having a great public school and feel that we need to share our deep disappointment and frustration regarding the lack of standards and follow-through exhibited by the administration at Great Falls Elementary. The inconsistency and lack of responsiveness and follow-through have severely impacted the quality of education provided. The principal's role is pivotal in setting the tone and ensuring a high standard of education. However, it is evident that the current leadership at GFES has fallen short in this regard. There is a palpable absence of proactive leadership, resulting in a lack of clear direction and a failure to implement effective policies that benefit the entire school community. This lack of leadership trickles down to the teachers and staff, negatively impacting their morale and motivation as well as allowing standards and quality education to slip. Teachers are on their phones as frequently as the students. We were told to beware of the 5th-grade teachers. I wish we would have listened.

This school needs new leadership. The principal does not have the necessary experience and the school is being managed by the assistants principals, which half of them have been too long in their jobs that only care about their pay checks. They don’t care about the students nor the community.
