Cooper Middle School

My son has autism and the teachers approach are more punitive than supportive. It feels as if on the daily basis my son is being targeted. It is discriminatory.

i got the greatest ending 2 years ago

This is hands down the worst school experience I’ve ever had as a parent. I’m originally from North Carolina, and after going through elementary, middle, high school, and college, I have never dealt with administration this rude, dismissive, and unprofessional.Communication is a constant issue. Calls and emails go unanswered, and when you do reach out, you’re basically told to wait 24–48 hours for a response. Even then, you still have to call back and follow up yourself just to get basic answers. It feels like parents are not taken seriously.What scares me most is student safety. My child has been harmed by other students, and the school didn’t even contact me. I only found out when my child walked through the door at home. That is unacceptable. Parents should never be the last to know when something happens involving their child.Also, be extremely careful with transportation. A substitute bus driver removed my child’s yellow tag from her bookbag (the tag that helps ensure kids are dropped off correctly), and my child was not dropped off at home. This happened with a male substitute driver. As a parent, that’s terrifying and completely avoidable with proper procedures and accountability.I do not feel confident that this school prioritizes student safety, respectful communication, or basic responsibility. I’m actively working on getting my child out, and I strongly suggest other parents do serious research before sending their child here. If you can prevent your child from attending this school, please do.

My daugther hace 2 years at school. We love it! The first year in pre-k amazing teachers!! My daugther is special kids you learning this 3l2 years is top!! Hay personas que hablan español en la oficina y hay maestras tambien..

My son & I, overall experience with Austell Primary Elementary has been a blessing! My son 1st started here in 2019 at the beginning of the pandemic, he was entering into K but his teachers were amazing! & you could tell the teachers were overwhelmed but they handled themselves with grace & the staff/teachers/ administrators were very informative of the status of the virus when students were able to attend physical school instead of virtual. Whenever I contact the school on any issue, they are sure to figure it out which I love because I can almost and the time get an answer to my concern. The school has been awesome since the beginning of time, my son is in the 1st grade at the moment.

Our experience over the last 3 years have been very positive. My kids are happy and well rounded going to The Cumberland School!!!
