Summary

Raymond B Cooper J H in Wylie, TX, is a high-performing middle school serving 1,019 students in grades 7-8 as part of the top-rated Wylie Independent School District (Isd). This school has earned a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger every year since 2015-2016, consistently ranking in the top 5-8% of all Texas middle schools. With a healthy student-teacher ratio of about 16.8:1 and a relatively low percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch (around 25%), Cooper J H provides a supportive environment for academic success.

The standout feature of Cooper J H is its exceptional Algebra I performance. In the most recent testing year, an incredible 99.44% of 8th graders taking the Algebra I End-of-Course exam scored proficient or above—nearly double the state average of 54.03% and significantly higher than the district average of 82.92%. This strength is part of a consistent trend, with the school achieving 100% proficiency in two of the last three years. Additionally, Cooper J H excels in 7th-grade reading, with 79.29% of students proficient, which is 25 points above the state average and the highest among all Wylie ISD middle schools. The school also performs exceptionally well for its African American students, ranking in the 96th percentile statewide for this subgroup in 2023-2024.

While Cooper J H shines in math and reading, social studies is a relative weak point, with proficiency rates (50.98%) below the district average in recent years. Compared to nearby schools, Cooper J H outperforms Murphy Middle in Plano ISD in Algebra I (99.44% vs. 98.89%) and far exceeds schools like Armstrong Middle and Webb Middle in neighboring districts, which face higher poverty rates and struggle with proficiency in the 30-40% range. The school benefits from a strong pipeline from Dr Al Draper Intermed, located just 0.13 miles away, which prepares students exceptionally well in reading and math. Overall, Cooper J H offers a consistently excellent education with a clear focus on math achievement.
