Enloe
High school is a name used in some parts of the world, and particularly in North America, to describe the last segment of compulsory secondary education. It is preceded by primary education. High school is also the name used to describe the institution in which the final stage of compulsory education takes place. In the United States, high schools generally consist of grades 9, 10, 11, and 12, although the inclusion of grade 9 varies by school district. Enloe High School is a Wake County Public School System public magnet high school located in east Raleigh, North Carolina. The school is named for William Gillmore Enloe, the mayor of Raleigh at the time the school was opened. Enloe is presently ranked 52nd in Newsweek's list of the top United States schools. The Principal is Dr. Beth Cochran and Vice Principal is Delores Darden. Enloe High School was actually organized as two different schools that shared athletic facilities between adjacent campuses William G. Enloe Senior High School and Charles B. Aycock Junior High School. The original Enloe campus was opened in 1962 as the first integrated secondary school in Raleigh for the education of students participating in grades seven through twelve. Enloe became a senior high school with concentrated education for grades ten through twelve. Enloe absorbed the Aycock campus in 1979, becoming a modern high school focused on education educating ninth through twelfth grade students. The Aycock building became the East Campus, while the original Enloe complex became the West Campus. Enloe has an interscholastic athletic program which provides a broad range of athletic activities and opportunities for students. Students are encouraged to participate on interscholastic athletics teams and to support the school teams during their regular seasons. Their school-sponsored teams compete in baseball, basketball, cheerleading, cross-country, football, golf, gymnastics, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track, volleyball and wrestling. At Enloe High School, their mission is to promote educational growth through a rigorous curriculum along with the acquisition of technical skills and knowledge that will provide a basis for lifelong learning and will create a bridge between education and career.
