Inspiring Individuals, Encouraging Excellence Through Education-Based Athletics.\\\The mission of the North Carolina High School Athletic Association is to provide governance and leadership for interscholastic athletic programs that support and enrich the educational experience of students.\\The North Carolina High School Athletic Association, Inc., was founded early in the 20th century. And even though the NCHSAA has witnessed dramatic growth in the scope of its programs and has had to deal with the changing face of education, one thing has remained constant: the Association's commitment to providing a wholesome athletic environment.\\The Association is a voluntary, non-profit corporation which administers the state's interscholastic athletic program. Any North Carolina public or non-boarding parochial high school is eligible for membership, provided it is accredited by the State Department of Public Instruction and that the school adopts and maintains a prescribed code to guarantee fair competition.\\The Association currently has 409 member schools and certifies the eligibility of well over 190,000 athletes annually. Other organizations which have contributed greatly to high school athletics in the state have over the years merged with the NCHSAA.
