Levine Middle College High School (LMCHS) is an honors magnet program offered by Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools that consists of grades 11-13.  We are located on the Levine Campus of Central Piedmont Community College in Matthews, NC.  Students have the opportunity to earn college credit during their junior and senior years as well as participate in an additional grade 13 year (if needed) to finish any course requirements to earn an Associates Degree.

Our students take classes through CMS as well as through Central Piedmont Community College.  How to Apply:
