6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI would have to agree with one of the other parents. This school is very click-ish. if you aren't from here good luck. also, don't even dare stand up to administration about a conflict with a teacher, you will for sure be an outcast. I would also like to add that the staff is not encouraged nor required to make the events (field day, parties etc...) fun. I for one think they should be held to a higher standard. This school is money hungry and when they get money they do not spend it in the right places. There are SOME great people here but you have to dig hard to find them. The most above all important thing at this school is school attendance. The greatest reward is for showing up, Not doing your best. You can make all f's and still go on the perfect attendance field trip. Priorities are in the wrong order. I would love to see certain staff members go (im not the only one) but I'm sure that wont happen.Parent Review12y ago - Cross Roads High School
