I believe the school need more leadership. The dress code is not enforced. It is awful how some of the students dress. The main thing is parents let them leave the house looking this way.

It is very easy to play the blame game regarding any school or government program. However, the absolute truth in the matter, is you TRULY get what you put into a program. If a student wants to learn, and puts forth an effort, they will get everything they are looking for and more. HOWEVER, if
... Read more a student comes to classes simply because 'they have to', they will not recieve any benefit from attending that school compared to any other school. As per the instructors at this school, to be a certified teacher, you must pass a STATE certification program. Which means, that any teacher in Tennesse is certified to teach anywhere in Tennessee, which also means that the program is state wide... not county wide as some seem to believe. In short, the teachers at CCHS are just as qualified as any other teacher in the state. Read less

My son is a Freshman and I am not happy with the level of communication by the school. There are some teachers that started the year with a good effort but that wained over the semester. I think better communication for progress reports, agendas and activities is desperately needed to improve parent
... Read more and teacher involvement - it is hard to get involved when you have no idea what is going on. I also think teachers are the key to success and failure. My son excels with certain teachers and struggles with other and it is not about the subject - a bad teacher can ruin a favorite subject and vice versa. I think teachers is one of the most important jobs in the world. We need incentives and competition to keep the best and weed out the rest. Read less

I know a few of them.Our school is in need of an overhaul. Our test results show how our school rates and should be ashamed of itself and it performances.

OK I am a current Senior at CCHS. In my honest opinion anyone who can sit around and call this school a joke, obviously hasn't been there long enough. I have spent the last four years of my school career there and in my expierience I have found some very amazing qualities and some very poor ones. Some
... Read more teachers at the high school need to put their effort into the class as well do most of the students. Where as other teachers are doing a very fine job and their students are excelling wonderfully! What most people need to understand is that you can only get out of a school what you put into it. Well, the case at CCHS is that most of the students are very lazy and feel that the teachers should hand them everything on a silver platter! We also need better parental involvement! -Laura Green Read less

As a former educator,I have spent time at CCCHS. I have observed the various facets of the school. In my openion students and staff are victims of themselves. Reasons:rural isolation with little input from outside eduational sources, poorly prepared administrators. There are many wonderful teachers

Like many others, school leaders are in denial about changes that are badly needed.The big,bad and controling immage in not a good way to motivate students nor teachers. Positive communication and solutions are badly needed. Good luck CCCHS and esp. to new school director. Read less

I'm a student at CCHS & in my opinion, its a very very bad school. Student pass mostly because of their sports involvement or until they get too old for the grade they are in. I know a lot of people who can barely read & their excuse is that they went to school in Campbell County. I think thats pathetic.
