Cross Creek Early College High School Reviews
Rating 3.88 out of 5 208 reviews
Cross Creek is a good opportunity for students to take if they are looking to get college credits as a high school student. There’s pros and there are cons to it though. I went there for my freshman year and decided not to go back. My reason for this is, this is advanced schooling and it is very fast paced you have to be on top of things and cannot slack behind one bit. Some teachers are good support but others add on to the stress and sometimes it can all pile up, which, if you have severe anxiety like me, isn’t at all good for you. If you want to try, try it out, see how it is for you, you have the opportunity to leave after your freshman year but once you’ve finished sophomore year you might as well stay. Your Junior & Senior years are when you are out on campus with your college classes so really you’ve completed all high school courses by then.
My experience with Cross Creek Early College High School has been a long and thorough journey. One thing I can say about Cross Creek is that they are exceptional in College Readiness. Cross Creek will make sure that by time you are a senior that you are prepared to apply to colleges, get scholarships, and be in college after graduation. You spend time taking multiple high school courses that are honors and through a partnership with Fayetteville State University take college courses as well. All so that when a student is graduated they have college credits that are enough to be a junior in college. Overall I am glad that I attended Cross Creek for all four years of high school because I have gained so much. The teachers, staff, and students are all very focused, helpful, and proficient in assisting students in every way they are able to.
I have only attended cross creek for one year since I did not go my freshman year so take this as you will, but from just one year I cannot tell anyone enough how good this school is. I have wanted to go to an early college since 7th grade and I was so excited when I was accepted to cross creek. Starting sophomore year was definitely a big adjustment. I wasn’t used to the people around me genuinely caring about school, so it was a nice surprise :) I also am not used to teachers who actually WANT to do their jobs. Although I’ve had my fair share of bad experiences ( as anyone would ) I can still confidently say about every teacher that works here loves what they do. The education is incredible and I’m forever grateful for this kind of opportunity. The environment has been great so far and most of the students are very very nice. I was accepted into the social atmosphere very easily. If you want a more challenging environment with small class sizes I highly highly recommend.
