I have 2 boys that attend Coupland. They love it here. The teachers are so caring and kind. My kids are challenged academically and are really thriving here. It feels like a private school with all the one-on-one attention my kids receive. The music and theater programs are awesome. I highly recommend this wonderful school.

This very small school is for K-8 grades. It is a very basic education that is not that good in my opinion. This school allows bullies to run rampant and does nothing to stop it or report anything to the parents. My kid attended for 5 years and was miserable the entire time. There is nothing to do in this is-hole town so of course there is nothing offered at this school of any value. My advice is don''t enroll your kids here if you really care about them. This whole town should be torn down and scraped away. People here are evil, un-friendly and have no heart. The best thing we did was to move the hell away from here!
