Parent Coordinator

My name is Angel Doughty, and I am the Parent Coordinator at Cooper Elementary School.

Families play a vital role in the education of their children. When families and schools work together, students are more successful and our entire community benefits. Here you will find information and links to family resources, events, and school volunteer opportunities to help you build relationships with other Cooper School families and with the community.

My role as Parent Coordinator is to serve as a facilitator – to bridge the gap between teachers, parents and students, and to help you find answers to the questions that you may be confronted with during the school year. My goal is to make it easier for you to resolve issues at the school level and to help you find the information and services you need to help your child.

If there is anything that I can assist you with please feel free to contact me.
