Lubbock-Cooper Bush Middle School

Amazing school. Wonderful for autistic students. 100 stars!!

My son loves attending Water's! The staff is wonderful and get to know the children that attend as well as the parents! When purchasing a home, the school district we were in was one our main focuses and we are so happy about where we have ended up!

We left North for a time for another Cooper school, but coming back was the best decision we could have made. North is home to us. The school is filled with staff, teachers, and principals who are the best of the best.

I was a student here for 11 years. Most of my life (I'm now 20). I was bullied by virtually my entire grade and teachers and despite letting admin know, nothing was done. When my parents alerted the school of an event that occured at home relating to expirences at school, they were told I (13 year-old) was lying. I will try to focus on the "important" things in this review. This school prides itself on academics, yet is years behind public School. I had straight A's my entire life, when I moved to public school in 9th grade my grades dropped to loses and even a couple f's. I also did not learn much about how a Christian should live, as I was being taught how to be kind from the least kind people I knew at the time. Also, neat little sidebar, we got taught how to deny climate change in 7th grade and why scientists are after Christianity. Regardless of your personal beliefs, I don't think kids should be taught apologetics when they are literally just starting puberty. Also, your kid will not learn great social skills. I have an extremely hard time communicating with other adults. I think that is in large part due to the fact I did not have to make new friends from first grade onwards because I already knew everyone in my grade. You may be reading this thinking "well I wouldn't WANT my kid to communicate with non-believers" but I even have a hard time socializing with other Christians. Think of it like how in extremely remote places the people there often have a specific dialect that is virtually unintelligible from anyone outside the community. In my experience southcrest creates a very similar affect. If I had to pick one thing from the school that I think is proficient, I would say they're reading and writing program is pretty good. Other than that I have no kind words for this school.

The Principal is a fine outstanding person and a pillar of the community. Nice building. Impressive academics.

My kids are always excited to go to school and share lots of good stories on what transpired within the day. They love their teachers and made good friends. They learn and have fun at the same time! Awesome experience at Central! Thank you!
