Welcome
Fall 2025
Dear Henderson Collegiate Community,
We are thrilled to share Henderson Collegiate’s outstanding results from the 2024–2025 school year, recently published by NCDPI in September 2025. These include student performance on end-of-grade and end-of-course assessments, academic growth, School Performance Grades, and more.
These results reflect not only the incredible effort of our students and the dedication of our staff, but also the commitment of families and community partners who believe—like we do—that a child’s circumstance should never determine their destiny. With the right support and opportunities, every child can rise, achieve, and lead.
At Henderson Collegiate, we know that academic success is built on a foundation of character. Our students are developing grit, integrity, and determination—the traits that prepare them to lead lives of purpose. As those qualities take root, they fuel a rigorous pursuit of knowledge and skill. From there, the love of learning opens doors not only to college but to a future where our young people are equipped to shape and change the world.
This year, we are proud to share that Henderson Collegiate:
-
Earned a composite score of 82% (B)
-

These results place Henderson Collegiate among the very top schools in North Carolina, but more importantly, they demonstrate what is possible when children are given the tools, guidance, and belief they deserve. The world is changing rapidly, and we are excited to see how our students—armed with character, skills, and a lifelong love of learning—will be ready not only to keep up with it but to change it for the better.
Thank you for standing with us. The strength of our Pride is unmatched, and the best is yet to come.
With Pride from Co-Founders,
Eric E. Sanchez, CEO
Carice Sanchez, Chief Academic Officer
Serving a diverse, predominantly low-income community, we recognize the challenges our students face, and we approach each day with the belief that those challenges do not define their potential.
