Best educational experience that my children could have in all of Roanoke. I remain impressed with the quality of teachers. Smaller classroom size equates to more individualized attention for my children. In addition to their academics, they have a substantial amount of extracurricular offerings that include musicals, play, athletics, clubs, etc.
Furthermore, their facilities could not be better. The campus is brand new. Both staff and faculty are receptive to individual need and are incredibly responsive.

I cannot imagine a better place for my children to attend school. Small class sizes, early world language instruction, a variety of arts and athletics opportunties, top-notch academics, and teachers who care about and are devoted to their students are just some of the great features of this school. My children have grown exponentially in a nurturing, positive environment that fosters growth in their academic learning and their character.
I have been at North Cross School for 6 years. I think that the school does a great job academically, but does not do a great job with equality or diversity. I am an African-American and would love to see more people my race attending the school, but unfortunately there are only 14 African-Americans in the whole school, ranging from grades Junior Kindergarten to 12th grade. As far as equality, there is not much when it comes to gender. The main gender inequality issue I have noticed while attending North Cross is in sports. As a woman who is very passionate about sports, I have observed how in boys sports, they are more successful in their seasons because they are supported more than the girls sports. This seems to be the result due to the greater investment of time and money into the boys sports than the girls sports.
