Ardrey Kell High School had the highest enrollment among Mecklenburg County schools, welcoming 3,503 students during the 2022-23 school year, according to the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.

Among the 191 schools in Mecklenburg County, Myers Park High School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 3,481 students, while South Mecklenburg High School welcomed 3,245 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Ardrey Kell High School is part of Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools district, which roughly covers institutions within Mecklenburg County and has a main office in Charlotte.

In the previous school year, Ardrey Kell High School also had the highest number of students among Mecklenburg County schools.

North Carolina's public schools are facing a significant funding gap, with a per-student expenditure of $10,519 — well below the national average of $14,295.

This financial strain is further compounded by a significant challenge in staffing with a staggering 58.4% surge in vacant teaching positions in the 2021-22 school year, leaving over 5,000 classrooms without qualified instructors.
