School Notes:
  • Cave Spring High School is a public secondary school in Roanoke, Virginia. It is part of Roanoke County Public Schools. Cave Spring is one of two high schools that serve southwest Roanoke County.
  • History: Cave Spring High School opened in 1956. In 1968, the high school was moved to its current site, while its original building became Cave Spring Junior High School. Cave Spring held grades 10-12 for a large number of years until 2002, when it fed over half of its 9-12 population into Hidden Valley High School.
  • Currently, renovations are being done to improve the track, football, and soccer practice fields in celebration of the school's 50th anniversary.
  • Athletics: The mascot is a knight and the sports teams currently play in the AA River Ridge District and Region III. Before Hidden Valley opened, Cave Spring was a AAA school, playing in the AAA Western Valley District and before that in the AAA Roanoke Valley District until its dissolution.
  • The Knights have won ten Virginia High School League state championships, three in AA which are three girls volleyball titles won in the 2002-2003, 2003-2004, and 2005-2006 seasons; one unclassified title in boys golf in 1964; and six AAA titles, which are two girls' gymnastics titles in 1976 and 1981; two boys swimming titles in 2000 and 2001; one girls swimming title in 2001; and one boys basketball title in 2002.
