Harding University High School

A CMS high school west of Uptown that serves some addresses near South End's western edge, depending on boundary.

Type: public
Grades: 9–12
Location: West Charlotte, west of South End

Harding University High is a comprehensive CMS high school located west of Uptown Charlotte. Depending on the exact boundary lines in effect, some addresses on South End's western fringe — closer to Wilmore or Southside Park — may fall within its assignment area rather than Myers Park's, which is why address-level verification matters more here than a neighborhood name would suggest.

As with any CMS high school, families should check current program offerings, any magnet strands, and transportation details directly with the district rather than relying on general reputation.
