Lubbock-Cooper East Elementary School

This is a wonderful school, my daughter will be in 4th and son in 1st this fall but this past few months has made me think twice. They hired a non-certified person who finished her classes online, and passed one of the tests, no classroom experience at all and have put her in a TAKS grade. I questioned the administration (it wasn't the principal or teachers that wanted her there) and was told to hush or get banned from the school. I have worked my tail off as a parent, student teacher and substitute and they made my life miserable because I do not think someone with no classroom experience should be in a classroom. My daughter will probably not be there this fall and my son will stay only because of who he will have for first grade. I may sound bitter but no parent whould have to go through what I have gone through the last couple of months. Think twice about putting your kids out here. Hundreds of teachers out of work and this is what they do. She worked as an aid for two years but no classroom experience. Because of this I can only give Cooper South an average rating.

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.

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

I absolutely love this school. My kids have had such a great experience at Lubbock-Cooper Central Elementary. The teachers are caring, supportive, and truly invested in helping each student succeed. I’ve seen so much growth in my kids both academically and personally.What really stands out is how many opportunities the school provides. The library program is fantastic and has helped my kids develop a strong love for reading. They also really enjoy being part of the chess club and UIL activities, which challenge them and build their confidence.Overall, the environment is positive, engaging, and very supportive. I’m grateful for everything the staff does for the students. Highly recommend this school to any parent!
