Prior to moving to Oklahoma we did a comparison on the internet between Coalgate and Cottonwood. Cottonwood won with an added bonus of being the #1 school in Oklahoma in 2006. The teachers did a pen pal program with my daughter to prepare her for the following year. The lcass sizes were smaller which were a plus! The teachers and children have a very close bond...obvious from the awards ceremonies and seeing them out and about in town.They really love not only to teach, but our children and our children really love them. I have known kids to come from other counties to attend Cottonwood, even as far as 1 1/2 hours away. Kids that could not read at other schools are excelling here. We love it!
Cottonwood School is a gem. I wouldn't send my son anywhere else. The teachers are positive moral examples and are full of love and dedication. Their test scores are off the charts, and the teachers aren't just teaching to the tests as is the case in so many schools. Small class size is a plus, as well as the many paraprofessionals that help out. My only wish is that there was a high school. My 8th grader graduated from there and I wish that he could have stayed in the Cottonwood system. If I had any problems with the school it might be that they get excited about an idea and start it, but don't follow through with it, therefore, causing some confusion. Also, there is a bit of a communication problem. But all in all, I believe Cottonwood to be one of the top schools in the state.
I have a grandchild in this school. They have done academic miracles in this child. My grandchild is extremely bright but it took this dedicated staff to get the best out of him
