Overall positive experience. Have had two children to attend from 6th grade up. Upper School has been my favorite so far; with the kids supported in the classroom.

The teachers are great, but the students are not which makes it difficult to build a sense of community.

I love Cape Fear Academy. The teachers are all wonderful and do an amazing job preparing their students for the next step: college! I feel very confident in my ability to excel in college due to their amazing programs! They have made me able to "Go Further"!
