Carolina Day School (CDS) is an independent, co-ed, college preparatory school with grades pre-kindergarten through twelve. Though only 17 years old, CDS draws on a rich educational history. Established in 1987 by the merger of two of Asheville, North Carolina's best private schools, Asheville Country Day School and St. Genevieve/Gibbons Hall, CDS represents over 150 years of the highest standards of learning. Asheville Country Day School (ACDS) was founded in 1936 by a group of local parents who sought better high school preparation for their children. First housed on Victoria Road, the K-9 school grew quickly and eventually combined with another K-9 school, the Haseltine School, in 1949. The new school moved to a large building on Merrimon Avenue near the site of present-day Grace Convenant Presbyterian Church. As its reputation grew, so did its student body, and soon the school needed to move again. The Hendersonville Road campus, with its modern building surrounding a triangular courtyard, was designed by architect Bertam King and built on land donated by the Biltmore Company. The new campus opened in 1958. 149 students were enrolled, and a high school division was added over the next two years. In the 1960s and 1970s, the school was known for its progressive teaching methods. In 1970, an extension was built onto the main building to house the primary division (grades 1-3), but, other than that, the campus remained pretty much intact through the 1980s.Carolina Day School Address
