On Monday, January 20 (MLK Day), Asheville School will host an Open House for those students and families who are interested in Asheville School or generally want to learn more about the day or boarding experience. The Open House begins at 9:30 a.m., and provides a fantastic, low-key introduction to four important aspects of school life: residential and community life, academics and relationships, athletics and afternoon activities, and college matriculation.
The three-hour Open House will include a tour of the
school’s new state-of-the-art Vandergrift Science Center as part of a campus
tour led by current students, faculty presentations, a student panel, and an
overview of the admission process.
“The upcoming Open House is a wonderful way to learn
about Asheville School in an informal way,” said Admission Director Morgan
Scoville. “If you are unsure about Asheville School or simply want to get a
better feel for our community without committing to an individualized visit,
then attending an Open House would be a great idea. Most families that attend
one of our Open Houses always return to campus because they are surprised by what
they learn, see, and feel and want to see exactly what they need to do to apply
and enroll.”
Because space is limited, parents should register soon to
learn more about the school’s talented teachers, small class sizes, and small
student body of 280 high school students representing 20 states and 17
countries.
“My daughter is truly joyous about being there,” said
Debbie Patrick, of Hendersonville, whose daughter, Cori, is a junior at
Asheville School. “She has teachers who challenge her, and the subject matter
interests her. There are healthy outlets by way of kids being involved in
sports and other after-school activities. She’s getting to meet diverse people
from all over the world and that has been good for her.”
