Charlotte Amalie High School is a public high school housing a population of just over 1400 students, and 130 plus members of faculty and staff. It is located in what is colloquially called the "town area" of the island of St. Thomas, United States Virgin Islands; It is named after the official name for the "town area," Charlotte Amalie, and it is a part of the St. Thomas-St. John School District. It is the territory's most populous high school.
C.A.H.S. was established in 1920 as a junior high school. In 1930, the first 12th grade class was added, and four students graduated in the class of 1931. It is popularly known as "High School" to older residents of St. Thomas, because it was the first high school opened on the island. It was named after Charlotte Amalie of Hesse-Kassel (or Hesse-Cassel), the queen consort of Denmark and Norway, (the wife of King Christian V). The school had two other locations prior to where it currently stands. The first location was at the Commandant Gade Site, and the second was at what is now the Senate (Earl B. Ottley Legislative) Building. The Charlotte Amalie High School moved to its current location in 1955.
Our mission is to educate and prepare students to become responsible, productive citizens and life-long learners who are able to function at optimal levels in institutions of higher learning, in careers, and in a global society.
