Summary

Coppell Classical Academy is a public charter elementary school in Coppell, TX, serving 432 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Texas College Preparatory Academies district.

This school has historically been a strong performer, earning 4-star ratings for nearly a decade, but its most recent data shows a significant drop to a 3-star rating (65th percentile). A key differentiator is its resource efficiency: the school spends roughly $7,000 per student and has a student-teacher ratio of 16:1, which is higher than most nearby schools. For comparison, the highly-ranked Coppell Independent School District (Isd) schools, such as Lakeside Elementary (97th percentile) and Mockingbird Elementary (91st percentile), spend over $10,000 per student and maintain lower student-teacher ratios around 12.5:1. While Coppell Classical Academy cannot match the top-tier Coppell ISD schools in raw academic metrics, it remains a stronger option than other nearby non-Coppell ISD alternatives like Riverchase Ele (46th percentile) and Rockbrook Elementary (23rd percentile).

The school's recent performance slump is a concern, with broad declines across all student subgroups. However, a bright spot remains in 5th Grade Science, where proficiency rates have consistently exceeded both state and district averages. The school's appeal likely lies in its "Classical Academy" educational philosophy rather than raw test scores. For parents considering this school, the data suggests it offers a unique educational approach with efficient resource use, but the recent decline warrants attention to understand if this is a temporary blip or a sign of deeper challenges.

Open Quote Student/ Teacher ratio is inaccurate. The ratio is more like 23:1. The classes are small and crowded. Students do not receive individualized instruction or assistance. The reduced lunch number is irrelevant when they do not even provide lunch for students. They are not equipped to handle learning disabilities or assist much at all. Close Quote
