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.

Cross Plains has the hardest working teachers in the district, with their amazing athletics and Admecics programs. Teachers are always willing to treat students like adults and go out of thier way to to truly leave no student behind.

I have had a good experience with Niche so far. Its very simple and easy to apply for scholarships. I have nothing bad to say about this website.

This school is very highly ranked in academics and states wide testing scores. I felt somewhat prepared for college as this school did not help me in selecting a college, did not help with the application process, and did not help with scholarship research. Unless you had the right last name it was hard to get to talk with the advisor.
