Established in 1909, CHCCS is located near the flagship campus of the University of North Carolina (UNC) and the world renowned Research Triangle Park (RTP). As a result of the district's proximity to higher education and research facilities, their community boasts one of the highest educated populations in America. The district operates three high schools, four middle schools, ten elementary schools, and a school for young people being treated at UNC Hospital and an alternative high school. CHCCS is particularly proud of the academic accomplishments of its students and the strong credentials of its teaching faculty.
