Cape Henry Collegiate School (also known as Cape Henry or CHCS) is an independent coeducational school in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
Cape Henry, founded in 1924 by Mrs. R.C. Everett as the Everett School, enrolls students in pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The Everrett was renamed Cape Henry Collegiate School and current enrollment is over 1,000 students. The current headmaster is Dr. Jack Lewis who replaced Dan Richardson in 2002 (Richardson was a student-favorite for expanding physical plant and improving the grounds). Dr. Jack Lewis raised funding for the 2007 state-of-the-art Science and Technology Center. The center fosters student-to-student interaction with science. Cape Henry's science center garnered local news acclaim when its seismograph picked up a recent earthquake in Iran.
Cape Henry excels in sports. For the Fall of 2008, CHC finished at the top of the Tidewater Conference of Independent Schools in field hockey, girls tennis and both male and female volleyball. In addition, CHC won two private school state championships in 2008.
