Henrico High School

Henrico High School is a public high school located in Henrico County, Virginia and operated by the Henrico County Public Schools. It has two specialty centers — the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years/Diploma Program and the Center for the Arts program (CFA). It is one of the oldest schools in Henrico County, and it has a highly diverse student population. In a June 8, 2009 online exclusive, Newsweek Magazine ranked Henrico High School number 928 in its 1,500 top US high schools. Henrico High was the only Henrico County school to make the list in 2009.

The high school features an outdoor campus, built in the same style as Varina High School. In 2014, the school added a new classroom building, a cafeteria, and remodeled the athletic fieldhouse building. The school completed a major renovation in 2017 to update the school's facilities.

Henrico High is a member of the International Baccalaureate Program. This program encompasses the Middle Years Program for ninth and 10th grade students (freshmen and sophomores) and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program for 11th and 12th graders (juniors and seniors).

The CFA speciality center includes musical theatre (MT), dance, visual arts and theatre programs. All areas cover topics that are relevant to their disciplines with a variety of instructors, including guest artists. MT students are trained in music, acting, dance, ensemble and performance. Dance students are taught ballet, modern, jazz, variety dance, composition and performance. Visual artists cover topics such as art history and artist vocabulary, while developing artistic skills. Theatre involves becoming versed in tech, acting, movement, improvisation, creative writing, dramatic literature and performance. Every year the center puts on several showcases: a fall showcase where each CFA dance, theatre and musical theatre level perform in one big show and the visual arts students display work in a gallery; four spring showcases where each discipline has its own show; and four senior showcases, one for each discipline, where seniors get to show off their work throughout high school by picking, directing, staging, choreographing, rehearsing and performing material of their choice with very little input from their teachers. Guest artists are often brought into class to enhance the learning experience of the center students. Through the center, students are presented with scholarship opportunities like working in local area arts fields and participating in internships.
