Welcome to Shadow Creek High School, home of the Sharks.  My name is Yusef McCree, Criminal Justice Instructor and SkillsUSA advisor. I will be teaching Principles of Law, Law Enforcement I, and Criminal Investigation for the 2022-2023 school year. I am from Abilene, TX. I graduated from Hardin Simmons University where I received a B.B.S. in Police Science & Administration. I also attended Sam Houston State University where I studied Criminal Justice/Leadership & Management at the graduate level. I was employed with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for (21) years, assigned to six maximum security correctional facilities throughout the state. I'm a DIE HARD Cowboys fan. I love Chinese food and my favorite game show is "Jeopardy."

I am living a childhood dream. I have always wanted to teach and I have been blessed with an opportunity. It's an opportunity to educate students in a career field that I absolutely love. My goal is to educate, mentor, and provide students with true insight into the criminal justice system. Students will understand the importance of integrity, professionalism, and having good moral values. Students will be given the tools to not only be successful inside the classroom, they will transition to their development in being positive pillars in the community. 2022 is going to be challenging. Let's take this journey together and make it an exciting school year.
