Chapel Hill Schools ( Chapel Hill/Carrboro City Schools) are known as some of the best in the state.
International Town
Chapel Hill is also an international town and attracts people from all over the world who choose Chapel Hill because of the casual lifestyle, wonderful public schools, the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill and proximity to Research Triangle Park.

Test Scores
The Washington Post ranks high schools in the US and of the three Chapel High schools, Carrboro High ranked 145, East Chapel Hill High ranked 158 and Chapel Hill High ranked 165.
The SAT scores for the Chapel Hill Schools were 1194 for math and reading and 1776 with the writing section included.
I know test scores are just one factor when judging a school. I think it’s always a good idea to visit the schools and meet the principal. School tours can be arranged and I can give you names of parents with children in the school you are interested in to answer questions that only a parent can.
Here is some information about the demographics of the Chapel Hill/Carrboro Schools along with the test scores. You can see from the photos that some schools are newer and some older. What I like about that is that there is such personality in each school. Academically they are all excellent and the older schools all have up to date technology and are sparkly clean but there is that special quirkiness of the buildings that echo the past and now of Chapel Hill.
