The Story Behind Cooper Science

Alexandria Cooper
Elementary Science Education Expert & Founder of Cooper Science

Hi! I'm Alexandria Cooper, founder of Cooper Science.

For more than 10 years, I have worked in elementary education as a classroom teacher, science instructional leader, and STEAM coach, supporting teachers in creating high-quality science instruction through research-based best practices.

As an instructional coach, I saw the challenges teachers faced trying to create engaging, hands-on science experiences while balancing everything else required of them. Through coaching and instructional support, I helped teachers implement strategies that led to significant student growth, including increasing fifth-grade science GMAS performance from 80% of students beginning as Level 1 learners to more than half of students successfully passing the assessment within one year.

Those same research-based practices became the foundation for Cooper Science. I created Cooper Science to provide teachers with high-quality, ready-to-teach science resources that support meaningful learning experiences and help students develop critical-thinking skills.

I also partner with schools and districts through consulting services to strengthen elementary science instruction, support teachers, and build effective science programs.
