Cross High School

Cross High School is a great school. I have worked there for 13 years and I have found the students to be kind, courteous, and academically talented. The parents and the community are supportive of the school and interested in their children's education. The majority of the faculty have advanced degrees and frequently collaborate to improve instruction. Discipline issues are rare; but, when there is an issue, the faculty and administration are on top of it. The school is safe and students, parents, faculty, and staff do not have to worry about violence. Many graduates of Cross High School attend college or enlist in the military. Students have been successful in completing undergraduate degrees at Wofford, Howard, SC State, USC, the College of Charleston, Benedict, Claflin, Coastal Carolina, Francis Marion, and many other fine institutions of higher learning. I am proud to be a valued member of the Cross High School family.

This school is a great , even with all of the challenges it have.

The school offers tremendous possibilities for all students and I would bring my child here anytime. Teachers are top-notch and the administration very friendly, not to mention about the technology that is available. The class size is very small so children will get more individual attention. I would recommend it to anyone!

I am currently a student at Cross High. I think the teachers are awsome, but my biggest problem with my school is that my class mates treat our teachers like trash. Its terrible when I'm seeing my teachers get treated like they are the children. The only reason I'm still at this school is because of the few friends I have, that have enough sense to act like an adult.

I believe that Cross High is a great school. There are great teachers that really care for us and are ready to teach us. I'm a student at Cross High and, trust me, I know what is going on around the school. If you take time out and pay attention, you'll become a great student.

I am appalled at the lack of discipline in this school. It appears as though the students run the school, not the adults. Students are often roaming the halls and classes are unruly.

I think Cross High School is a great tool for education. I believe it is not all the school's job to provide everything. The student must want the knowledge. The parents must encourage their children. I am a 2002 graduate of Cross High and I am doing excellent in college. I have kept all my scholarships, involved in clubs and organizations and have a job. Cross has built a foundation for me, which I am adding on everyday. I must admit, I was not on the same level as other College students, but that was my fault. The information was there, it was me as an individual not taking it. It takes much discipline to attend Cross High, and many students do not have that discipline. But it starts at home. So everyone that degrades or destroys Cross High, should evaluate themselves.

I think that Cross High School is not a great school for your child to be educated at. They are not teaching students the things that need to be taught. I am a former student of Cross High,but transferred to Holly Hill Roberts High School (now Lake Marion High School). I learn a lot at the school I'm at now. Cross High is a great school for students who just like to party and have fun activities, but as for the learning, it's not.
