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.

Crossroads is a pretty good school with alright teachers but not many opportunities. It is better than the alternatives, as it keeps a safe campus and is relatively drug free. The administration, however, is a bit crazy.

The main thing I like about Crossroad Academy is how everyone feels connected to each other. The school is not very big, so that allows everyone to connect with each other whether that be students and faculty, or faculty and parents.

Attending Crossroad Academy has been the best thing that happen in my 17 years of life. This school prepared me for my future. Attending Crossroad helped me think academically and mentally for the route I am heading going to college. The only thing I would like to change is to have more electives.

This is not the school to place your child! Many of the teachers are not certified to teach in any state and behave worse than the students. This is a leaderless school and should be taken over by KIPP, Edison Schools, CharterUSA or an entity that knows what charter schools are designed for...

It's just not perfect for students to learn at CACS. Don't even dare to send your children to this school.

Happy to say that Crossroad Academy (CACS) have incorporated the 9th grade into their great school of excellence. Way to go Crossroad. Waiting for the other high school grades to follow.
