Carolina Day School is Asheville's premier comprehensive independent school. Our goal is to discover the promise, inspire the journey, and celebrate the achievement of every student in our school. We are independent and non-sectarian. Carolina Day School is a dedicated, caring community, working together to educate the mind, open the heart, strengthen the body, and kindle the human spirit. Working in partnership with parents, Carolina Day School challenges young people to pursue their personal quest for excellence by engaging them in a rigorous, college preparatory program, and offering them opportunities to educate the mind, the heart, the body, and the human spirit.
