Since its opening in 1967, Cape Fear Academy has been a leader in the educational community of southeastern North Carolina.  Known for its academic excellence and outstanding college preparatory program, the pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade curriculum emphasizes hands-on learning across academic disciplines.  Respect and integrity, which foster an atmosphere of trust and safety for the Cape Fear Academy community, are also key components of the school's mission.  Co-curricular programs such as athletics, visual and performing arts, student government, and clubs constitute an integral part of the student experience at CFA. Recent multi-million dollar facilities expansion and improvements have included a new athletic complex with a synthetic turf field.  Plans for future development include a new theatre for our award-winning drama department, as well as additional classrooms and a new gymnasium.

For the approximately 650 students attending Cape Fear Academy, there are designated spaces for music, art, physical education, computer instruction, and library visits for each of the three divisions of the school.  Instructional class sizes of 15 - 20 students allow close personal relationships between faculty and students, a hallmark of Cape Fear Academy. We invite you to visit our campus to see our facilities, by phoning our Admissions Office, or emailing us (admission@capefearacademy.org).  We would love to explore the advantages of a Cape Fear Academy education with you!
