Original Research by School Decision on Crosscreek Charter School
Crosscreek Charter School is a K through 8 charter district serving a small student population in Franklin County, North Carolina. It operates as a single school, and its enrollment is distributed fairly evenly across its nine grades, with each grade holding roughly similar numbers of students.
The school serves a majority-white student body, with a smaller but substantial share of Hispanic students and a smaller share of Black students. The racial and ethnic composition is predominantly white, with the remaining enrollment spread across Hispanic, multiracial, and Black students in smaller proportions. Data on the share of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, or the count of students with Individual Education Plans or English learner status, were not available.
State assessment data were not reported, which means the school's proficiency levels in tested subjects cannot be characterized from available sources. Without those results, a parent cannot see how students are performing in reading, math, or other tested areas compared to expectations or other schools. The school's website, where one might find additional program details or curricular priorities, was not located during research.
Among Franklin County's three districts, Crosscreek stands out in one measurable way: its chronic absenteeism rate is below the midpoint, meaning fewer students are missing school regularly than in at least one other district in the county. The school's per-pupil current spending is in the middle to upper range for the county, reflecting a higher allocation of resources per student than the median.
The district does currently post a state notification for Additional Targeted Support and Improvement (ATSI), which indicates the school has been identified for academic support under state rules. The specific timeline of that designation and its current implications were not confirmed from publicly available sources, so a parent may want to contact the school directly to understand what this means for instruction or support services.
The school serves grades K through 8, which means it does not have a high school graduation rate to report. No enrollment data on students with disabilities or English learners were available. A parent interested in this school would benefit from reaching out directly to ask about curriculum, special education services, English learner support, assessment results, and what the ATSI designation entails and how the school is responding to it.
