| About Central High School Cheyenne High School, the predecessor of Cheyenne Central High School, was the first high school in Wyoming, founded in 1868. Our school is a charter member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. We were first accredited in 1909. We remain accredited by that organization and by the Wyoming State Department of Education. Cheyenne Central High School is a three-year high school, serving approximately 1290 students. Each classroom teacher has at least a bachelor's degree with a majority holding a master's degree. In addition to regular classroom teachers, two military personnel are assigned by the U.S. Army to conduct the NJROTC program. Our ROTC program is the second oldest program of its kind in the United States. Top |
