Achievements
In February 2008 the Model United Nations brought home the "Best Large Delegation" award from BosMUN, a conference in Boston, MA hosted by MIT and Boston University. This conference was attended by schools across the world including those from Canada, China, and Guatemala. Student representatives were the recipients of several "Best", "Outstanding", and "Honorable Mention" awards. This feat was repeated in 2010, where delegations came from 5 different continents, including a delegation from Ghana. Cape High students took home 15 individual awards, and the "Best Large Delegation" award once again. In 2011, the Model UN team once again reigned supreme at George Washington University's WAMUNC. Cape Coral High School received "Best Large Delegation," and obtained 17 individual awards at this conference in the nation's capital. The website, bestdelegate.com now recognizes Cape Coral High School as one of the most elite Model UN programs in the world. In 2012, the team returned to BosMUN in full force, sweeping the floor and receiving best delegation by over doubling the second place school's score. 20 of the 24 students from Cape Coral High School received awards, and 7 walked away with best delegate awards.
March 2008 marked the first time that Cape Coral High School has hosted a regional math competition. At the competition, Cape Coral High School placed first among Lee County high schools, and fourth among overall participating high schools.
For the first time since the school has been erect, Cape Coral High School has earned an "A+" as the school's grade for the 2010-2011 school year.
Cape Coral High School's Marching Band, the Marching Seahawks, also placed 3rd overall in its division at the Preview of Champions competition at Mariner High School on November 13, 2010. In the 2011 Indoor drumline season, the drumline was able to win one competition, place second in another, and came in 5th place in the state in division AA.
For the first time in school history, the Cape Coral High School boys soccer team has won the Class 4A State Soccer Championship 2010-2011.
The Seahawks were down 2-0 nothing going into the 2nd half against the Choctawhatchee Indians, but Nathan Stone would score early in the 2nd half. Then, Cario Amaral would add 2 more, as the Seahawks score three goals in 18 minutes to win the game, and the state championship.
The final score was 3-2.

Famous quotes containing the word achievements:
“Fathers are still considered the most important “doers” in our culture, and in most families they are that. Girls see them as the family authorities on careers, and so fathers’ encouragement and counsel is important to them. When fathers don’t take their daughters’ achievements and plans seriously, girls sometimes have trouble taking themselves seriously.”
—Stella Chess (20th century)
“There are some achievements which are never done in the presence of those who hear of them. Catching salmon is one, and working all night is another.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
