The best part about this school is the way kids are introduced to different perspectives from around the world. Whether it be through discussions in class in which students are encouraged to voice their opinions, or through traveling around the globe through the nexus programs that I was lucky enough to take part in.

It is a mostly inclusive community with countless opportunities. It has small class sizes allowing for more personalized help. Teachers, for the most part, know you and want to help as best they can. Most of the administration is good except for a select few. I'd love it if they would listen more to the voices of the students, however.

Cape Henry has been a great fit for our son. He's had opportunities that we couldn't have imagined. Traveled around the world. Taking an engineering class. And just had an overall tremendous experience.

Great school! We have had wonderful experiences for the last 5 years for multiple kids. Great teachers and many opportunities for trying out new things. I'm so happy that we made this choice. We have friends who have moved to CHC after other local schools and are always very happy with CHC.

It's awful and most teachers are fake, its pretty much based off if your family works there. I have dredged my experience here and I'm leaving this comment so no one has to suffer any longer.

Very nice teachers. Cape Henry has a really strong support system for our growing LGBTQ+ community. My daughter feels very comfortable expressing her true identity and has been on same great trips with caring people.
