The education, the teachers all make up the wonderful environment that cross schools offer. It's an amazing school and the only thing I would like to see change would be offering more sports for the high schoolers and even possibly having a swim team. Overall I love cross schools and am happy to call it the highschool that I attend.

The small community allowed for self expression and close relationships to grow over my enrollment. The staff shows dedication and care to students and the school. High expectations for student work encourage a strong work ethic.
