Jay M. Robinson High School, often referred to as Robinson or JRob by students, is a comprehensive public high school located in Concord, North Carolina. It is the fifth high school of the Cabarrus County Schools system, opening its doors in August 2001, the county's first new high school since 1966. With an enrollment of approximately 1,500 students in grades 9-12 (built for 1400), it is the largest high school in Cabarrus County. The school's enrollment dropped in the fall of 2007 with the opening of Hickory Ridge High School in nearby Harrisburg.
The school was constructed under the name Southwest Cabarrus High School, but was renamed in 2001 after the death of Dr. Jay Robinson, Chairman of the North Carolina State Board of Education and former Cabarrus County Schools administrator.
