Cross Creek High School (CCHS) is a public high school located in the South Augusta area of Augusta, Georgia, United States. The school is located within the Richmond County School System.
Cross Creek High School opened in 1999, for convenience and to relieve overcrowding at nearby Hephzibah High School and Butler High School.
Cross Creek is one of the highest ranking schools in Georgia.
The school offers an array of team sports and programs. The school has personnel and coaches who facilitate the development of student athletes. These sports include football, soccer, softball, baseball, swimming, tennis, track, basketball, golf, volleyball, wrestling, and cheerleading.
The Cross Creek Athletic Booster Club is a parent-based organization providing support for student athletes both on and off the field. Money is raised through several fundraisers during the school year. These fundraisers include a football concession sale, a chicken dinner, concessions from the Richmond County Recreation Track meet, and membership fees.
The Cross Creek Chorus began in 1999 (the year of the school's opening). Since then the choir has been a constant staple in the fabric of the school and surrounding community. On average, the group boasts about 10% of the school's total population. Its first director was Sonya Bailey. The choir has been under the direction of its second director Jerome Peterson since the 2006-2007 school year.
