WELCOME TO CFCI
The Cape Fear Center for Inquiry (CFCI) is a public charter school located in Wilmington, NC. As a charter school we are funded by the state of North Carolina and do not charge tuition. We are not a part of New Hanover County School System, but rather function as our own small school system. We have a board of directors that makes policy and hiring decisions. We do not discriminate in admission.

MOTTO
CFCI students will LEARN while at CFCI, SHARE their experiences, and LIVE as empowered, thinkers, learners, inquirers and good people in the world.
Our motto is:
Learn. Share. Live.
LEARNING
