Achieve Your Best Chapel hill-chauncy hall

At Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall, we cultivate intellectual courage, creative ambition, and unwavering empathy.

We are a school where learning reaches beyond academic proficiency. We facilitate the growth and development of our students’ skills, interests, and abilities in a teaching environment that inspires inquiry, creativity, discovery, and collaboration. Because our students understand how they learn, they are persistent self-advocates, and they are thoroughly resourceful—skills that prepare them as students and as leaders.

We are a welcoming community where everyone is genuinely encouraged to be themselves. Students learn to seek out, connect with, and surround themselves with adults who inspire—not only through their passion for teaching, but also as mentors who model the qualities students seek for themselves.

We see one another, we hear one another, and we work together to create an authentic culture of inclusivity. The result? Students who develop a sense of strength, engagement, and awareness that drives them to achieve their best.

Express Yourself

​​It takes an incredible level of self-awareness and self-confidence to know that asking for help is a strength. For CH-CH students, this path to understanding is guided by the adults around them.

We are a relationship-centered school where connections between students and adults are genuine and form through shared interests and mutual respect. Over time, each student builds a network of trusted adults around them who mentor, encourage, support, and inspire. Our students are known; therefore, they feel comfortable taking intellectual risks and are empowered to express themselves.

All students find that their success exponentially grows when they use their voice. They understand that being a skilled self-advocate is a direct link to achieving their goals. Need help? Ask for it. Want to apply your passions to an independent study that reaches beyond the curriculum? Ask for the resources. Want more accelerated courses? Ask for them. Want an internship? Ask for a referral. All of this teaches a CH-CH student one thing: speaking up for yourself is a superpower.

Create Your Story

Imagine attending a school where you feel confident jumping out of your comfort zone and trying something new because you knew that you had the support of the entire community behind you? This happens at CH-CH all the time, and it’s magical to witness. So many of our students begin a story with, “I never thought I would…” and end with “...and now I love it.”

From the moment you step on campus, you will feel it: the inviting warmth of our community. Our genuine care and concern for each other, our willingness to show up for one another’s experiences, and most importantly, our commitment to learn from each other is at the core of who we are.

Take Charge

When CH-CH graduates arrive at college, they already know how to succeed as students. They know how they learn, how to adapt to different learning settings and styles, advocate for themselves, and manage their time and resources. But our students graduate more than prepared for college—they are prepared to engage and lead.

We live in a world where the ability to navigate challenges is becoming increasingly necessary. CH-CH provides the very best foundation for students to develop the skills they will need to navigate the complexities of the future. This is because when students feel safe, nurtured, and connected to the people around them, they are able to navigate challenges knowing they will be supported. This comfortable risk-taking is key to developing the maturity, self-awareness, and confidence graduates will need to take charge of their futures.
