Central Piedmont Community College now stands where Central High once stood; one of CPCC's main buildings is known as the Central High building (and was formerly called the Garinger building). The school is named for Dr. Elmer H. Garinger, a former superintendent of the Charlotte City Schools.In early 2006 the school found itself threatened with closure by the State of North Carolina, but has received backing from the City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County.Garinger's feeder schools are Briarwood Elementary, Devonshire Elementary, Hickory Grove Elementary, Merry Oaks Elementary, Shamrock Gardens Elementary, Windsor Park Elementary, and Winterfield Elementary. The corresponding middle schools are Cochrane Middle School, and some students from Eastway Middle School and Northridge Middle School.Historical landmarkThe Charlotte-Mecklenburg Historical Landmarks Commission is considering placing Garinger High School on their study list.
