Cherry Creek School District Reviews
Rating 4.09 out of 5 158 reviews
Rating 4 out of 5
Cherry Creek School District is a great district that can have future improvements. The best moments I had were with some of my friends when we hung out during lunch and after school. The worst part was being laughed at for "missing" The fun during middle school. I realized that having fun doesn't always mean what other people like to do, for pleasure. Instead, it simply might be doing something you like that the majority might think it's not "fun"

While at Cherry Creek High School, I had great teachers who were passionate about thier jobs and teaching students. The campus is well-kept. The quality of education is excellent and prepared me for college.

I came to the school halfway through my freshman year, January of 2021. I moved from a typical suburban High school in PA with about 2500 students where all my classes were in one building, to a High School with almost 4,000 students. Today, it is close to 4,500 students. It's almost like a small college campus because there are multiple buildings that I have to switch to and from for my classes. I quickly noticed that the student body that surrounded me also came from wealthy to upper class families. To be honest, a lot of entitled kids whose parent's paid their way. I didn't come from that dynamic. I would say that was probably the worst part about Cherry Creek High School. The student's weren't so friendly and way too boastful for their academic and athletic reputation. The best part of Cherry Creek were my teachers. I had some of the best teachers who really helped me adapt. Don't get me wrong, I also had a few bad teachers, but the good definitely outweighed the bad teachers.
