With a history that goes back more than 175 years, Chapel Hill-Chauncy Hall School is a small, coeducational day and boarding program for students in grades 9 to 12 and postgraduate. Located on a 37-acre, beautiful suburban campus, we offer small classes and a strong college preparatory curriculum. In addition to arts, athletics , and other exciting opportunities for personal discovery. But if you’re thinking CH-CH sounds just like other independent schools, read on. We’re an innovative school offering some distinctly different approaches and experiences so students actively engage in their learning.
