Campus
Central High moved from its old building (now Central Junior High School) to the newly constructed one in 2002. The campus has a variety of athletic facilities on site, including a tennis court, a full track, along with baseball, softball, soccer, and marching band practice fields. There is a 5000-seat stadium and a performing arts building, Richard D. Kinder Performance Hall. The main building is divided into two wings, one of which houses the academic classrooms on two levels; and the other is an athletic/music wing with two gymnasiums, a weight room, wrestling room, and a band/orchestra practice room. A full library is centrally located, indoor courtyard-style, in the academic wing of the building.
Academic honors
Cape Central High School was recognized in May 2007 by ACT as one of 382 schools in America (one of eight in Missouri) for academic rigor in mathematics and science. Cape Central has also been commended for its Advisory class, which helps many students.[3]
