Carla Bridges Black, Principal

 It continues to be my pleasure and honor to serve the students, parents, and staff of the Cabarrus Kannapolis Early College.  Together, we have created an early college family that supports each and every eagle in challenging themselves to be the very best students and servant leaders they can be. This is evidenced in the post-early college career and collegiate opportunities they earn as well as the impact through service they make within our community. 

This school serves those wishing to challenge themselves at the highest academic level while strengthening their ability to think critically and grow forward into the 21st century of innovators and leaders within a community of learners. We have accomplished a great deal together and yet there is still more work to do. I am humbled and privileged to be a part of the EAGLE FAMILY!

FLY, Eagles, FLY!
