Principal’s Message

Hello and welcome to Chatham Central High School, where we focus on providing students with the keys to their chosen path! I am Ms. Mary Margaret Dark, Interim Principal of our school.  You can come to me to share your child’s interests so we can partner together to prepare them for life after high school.

We were the first Virtual Academy in our district even before the pandemic and we are one of the first rural high schools in the country to earn the distinction of becoming an AVID National Demonstration School. AVID is a system of learning for College and Career Readiness. Our seniors traditionally earn over 7 million dollars in scholarship money each year and our CTE programs prepare our students for careers and post-secondary education in their chosen fields.

Located in Bear Creek, the heart of North Carolina, we pride ourselves in our small family atmosphere supported by a community that is equally dedicated to the success of our students. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions as we partner together with your student to prepare for their future!

WE ARE CENTRAL: To learning, To living, To success!

Sincerely,

Ms. Mary Margaret Dark, Interim Principal
