Jack Britt High School

• Cumberland County Schools, NC
• 9-12
• 596

Senior: Jack Britt has been a wonderful school to attend. The teachers and administration have encouraged and challenged us greatly to make sure we succeed. Without the challenges I have faced I would not be the student I am today. Jack Britt has helped to mold me into the successful and educated person I am becoming. Yes, there are some downsides such as a strict dress code and no phones at lunch, but every school has downsides. Jack Britt is a place where I enjoy going to school everyday(except for when I stay up late the night before school and want to sleep in). They try to make sure everyone is included such as making sure kids have a place to sit at lunch if they are lonely. Being a shy kid growing up, Britt has helped me to make new friends and become involved in after school activities. As a senior about to leave Jack Britt, I can say that I’ve had a wonderful time and that it is GREAT to be a BUCCANEER!

Cumberland International Early Colleges

• Cumberland County Schools, NC
• 9-12
• 81

Junior: An early college program that enables high school student to be advanced than high school students attending traditional schools. The students are in dual enrollment with college classes at Fayetteville State University. Since it is a smaller school than traditional schools, the teachers can give students a one on one learning and attention time. The teachers are very helpful and students can form trusting relationship with them.

Middle School Student: I liked the teachers at Vanstory, and the students were not bad. I only ever came in contact with one bully in my time there. I loved the plays we always performed there, and the fact that they are actually educational, and I enjoyed them. I do wish that there were more after school activities, because there were only a few in my time there. Otherwise, Vanstory is an awesome school 👏

Sandhoke Early College

• Hoke County Schools, NC
• 9-12
• 80

Sophomore: I am an active student currently at SandHoke Early College, and I love my experience there. All the staff and administration are very involved with the students, and it really creates an amazing sort of community on our campus. The teachers at SandHoke are some of the best in the whole state. The teachers put their students first and are always helpful if you need help. I really have enjoyed my experience so far at SandHoke but the only thing I feel like really lacks is sports,(Spartan was just offered last school year, but I would prefer more options) and maybe some more diverse clubs (the school has a lot already, but I feel like student made clubs might be a good addition). Overall, SandHoke is an awesome choice compared to the alternative high school in the county. It is definitely a place worth considering the amount of preparation that will go into making your child the most successful they can be.

Senior: To be ingulfed in such a wonderful placed revolved around citizenship and tradition shaped me be the leader and bright women I am today. Throughout my four years at Cape Fear I was able to evolve my mind and character which therefore allowed me to expand my education with limitless possibilities. Change respresents growth and wisdom, and all I hope for my school is to not engross themselves in silliness like dress code and cell phone policies but to strive to focus on creating wonderful students with free minds and big hearts because Colt Pride Never Stops.
