Green Hope High School
Green Hope High School is a secondary school located at 2500 Carpenter Upchurch Road in Cary, North Carolina. It is a part of the Wake County Public School System. Green Hope High School has a current enrollment of over 2,000 students, and is one of the highest performing high schools in North Carolina. After only ten years as a Wake County High School, Green Hope earned the North Carolina Honor School of Excellence designation, an honor that only a few high schools in North Carolina have achieved.
The historic Green Hope School was established in 1927 and was the first accredited rural high school in Wake County, serving 200 students in grades 1 through 12. In 1952, it was renamed Green Hope Elementary School when the higher grades were reallocated to nearby Cary or Apex High Schools.
On August 15, 1963, at 1 AM, the old school caught fire and was never rebuilt. The scoreboard from the old Green Hope School is still present in the modern-day Green Hope High School main gym.
The current Green Hope High School opened in 1999. The present campus is about a mile away, across the road from the old building site. It retained the name of the former school after lobbying by alumni.
It first opened for freshmen and sophomore students from neighboring overcrowded schools. It added a grade level for the two subsequent years and graduated its first senior class in 2002.
The school consists of a main three-story building, with additional modular classrooms adjacent. The Cary Tennis Park, operated by the town of Cary, which functions as the school's tennis practice facility, is located directly behind the school. Green Hope Elementary School and Park are located directly across the street from the Tennis Park. Both schools are operated by Wake County Public School System.
Jim Hedrick became principal of Green Hope circa 2005, and served there until 2014, when he became principal of Athens Drive High School. The Green Hope school community paid tribute to him after he died on August 2, 2016.
Karen Summers became principal in 2014. In 2019 she became the principal of Green Level High School. Dr. Diann Kearny served as interim principal for the remainder of the school year. Dr. Camille Hedrick served as principal beginning in 2019 and retired in 2022. Alison Cleveland has served as principal since the 2022–23 school year.
