GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Cabarrus-Kannapolis Early College High School has helped me to become prepared for college through accessible assistance and support. The classes are rigorous but I feel comfortable transitioning into college. I would like to see more connections throughout grade levels.

My experience at this school has been very fortunate as it's a very selective program and provides great benefits for free but there are some lackluster things as there are with nay school. The faculty KS very focused on grades as were in one of the best high-school in the state which means there isn't a lot of stuff done for the students.

This high school seems to have the best college readiness program. Students work in group study and prepares them to the real work environment. Programs offers them up to 2 years of undergraduate college program.
