About WCHSNAAI
One summer day in 1981, two alumni of the 1946-47 classes were attending a meeting on the scenic banks of Lake Norman. One alumnus arrived at the meeting on time and the other one was late, missing the opening of the meeting. The one arriving on time had a magnetic idea and was burning with anxiety to share it with the group.
WCHS History
West Charlotte has a unique and rich history that began in the fall of 1938 when the Charlotte City Schools opened the doors to the second high school for “Negroes”. Under the leadership of Clinton L. Blake, its first principal, West Charlotte began its march to academic excellence with 398 students in grades eight through ten. The faculty was made up of thirteen dedicated and very capable teachers.

O so brave, strong and true
We’ll always love thee
Where e’er we may be

We’ll fight for thee,
To bring honor, joy, and glory free.

Voices will raise singing thy praise.
Banners of red wave high o’er head
Accented with a golden hue.West Charlotte High,

Thy loyal hand be it ever our guide
Through struggles fair as we leap and stride.
Oh halls lend fame, as we laud thy name
For aye in education’s cause
