Raleigh Charter High School is a public, college-preparatory school that serves students from North Carolina. We offer only the college and university preparatory track diploma. Admission to the school is by public lottery.

Prospective students complete an application for admission to Raleigh Charter High School. Applicants must be ready for Algebra I or a higher mathematics course in the ninth grade. A math placement form indicating that the student is prepared for Algebra I or higher level math course and signed by the current math teacher, completes the application. During high school, students must take at least four courses in math and at least two consecutive years of a foreign language in order to graduate from Raleigh Charter High School. We offer math courses from Algebra I to Calculus III. Many courses are offered only at the honors (advanced) level.

Qualified siblings of current students and qualified children of the principal, teachers, and teacher assistants have preferences for admission.

We hold Information Sessions to give prospective students and parents a chance to view the school campus, to visit staff members, to pick up an application and information packet, and to hear programs about our school.

The application window for the 2009-2010 school-year has closed.
