UNC-TV’s “North Carolina Now” will air a story about the Charlotte Engineering Early College (CEEC) at 7:30 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 9.
A collaboration between the University and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, CEEC is located near EPIC. Its curriculum focuses on STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) with an emphasis on energy and engineering.
Recently the North Carolina State Board of Education held its fall planning retreat on campus. During this time, board members celebrated the official opening of the CEEC, the newest of 76 early college high schools in the state.
The CEEC’s inaugural class of 100 ninth graders is from across Mecklenburg County.
