[[Creedmoor High School]] opened in 1909 at the intersection of Main Street and Highway 56. Joel Anderson Pitts (1877–1958), a graduate of [[Duke University]] – then called Trinity College – was the first principal. This school served grades one through twelve until 1963, when white students went to [[South Granville High School]]. On January 9, 1970, Creedmoor School, at that time serving grades one through eight, burned down. Behind the former Creedmoor High School gym lies B.C. Roberts Ballfield, named after Battle Caviness Roberts who coached for the South Granville Athletic Association well into his years before his death in 1982.

Creedmoor is also the home of [[South Granville High School]], G.C. Hawley Middle, and Creedmoor Elementary. The Hawley School, dedicated in 1937 for educationalist Rev. Grover Cleveland Hawley, originally educated the local black students. The opening of the school was bolstered by the support of Dr. R.G. Rogers, Creedmoor town physician and dentist who was a member of the Granville County Board of Education at that time. His support was instrumental on the board. The doors to Hawley School first opened for all local black students in September 1952 after many years of tireless and dedicated work spearheaded by Reverend Hawley. The new facility housed grades seven through twelve. In 1975, Hawley became a middle school serving grades five through eight from the [[Butner, North Carolina|Butner]], [[Stem, North Carolina|Stem]], and Creedmoor areas and eighth graders from [[Wilton, North Carolina|Wilton]]. In September 1986, seventh graders from Wilton Elementary were moved to Hawley, and in 1987 sixth graders from Wilton also began to attend Hawley. At the present time, Hawley Middle School teaches grades six through eight from the Creedmoor and Wilton area. Students from Butner and Stem now attend Butner-Stem Middle School.
