If you are in NC, it is hard to beat NCSSM for 11th/12th grade students. Not for everyone and admissions can be tough but great option. In 2021 they will double the size of the student body by adding a new campus in Morganton.

The best part about Metrolina is the cohort. The school itself does not really offer that much based on our experience, but it is better than most of the area schools. Agree that Horizons is an excellent program.

The Raleigh area is a bit stronger than Charlotte from what I have seen in many academic competitions.
