This purposefully small, relationship-based boarding school offers students the opportunity to take constructive risks in the pursuit of excellence under the care- ful supervision of accomplished, engaged adults with whom they live, work, play, eat, and worship. Asheville School is a learning community where students are known and loved by asking of them their very best efforts and absolutely best selves. It’s hard for students sometimes, and that is by design. The students have the watchful support from their faculty to make undertaking a challenge a safe and exhilarating growth experience. Few schools can match the personal care every student receives at Asheville School. Thank you for making this possible. You have made possible a beautiful multi-purpose, artificial turf, lighted playing surface. There is a handsome new grandstand that seats 500, and above it are both a well-appointed press box and a filming platform. As I write this letter, Asheville School teams are undefeated on this new surface, and our night games have been a wonderful, enthusiastic celebration of the community spirit. This beautiful addition to the campus is but one achievement of our school’s “At the Threshold” campaign. We are working hard toward the goal of building a new fine and performing arts facility to be constructed along Kehaya Lawn adjacent to Tyrer Terrace, and our efforts to support technology initiatives, financial aid, and faculty development are meeting with an encouraging response. It is my fondest hope that we will realize our campaign goals before July 1, 2019. That date is significant because it will be Dr. Anthony Sgro’s ‘84 first day on the job as Asheville School’s ninth Head of School. Anthony, his wife, Faulkner; and their children, Huston (age 11), Grazia (age 9) and Bagley (age 9) will begin their tenure at a time when Asheville School is thriving. But let us not underestimate the challenges they face. The boarding school market has never been more competitive. Team Sgro has the experience, the enthusiasm, and the love of Asheville School that will make possible a new golden era for the best small boarding school in the country. I know you will support the Sgros in every way possible. In closing, this is my last introduction letter for an Annual Report. Thank you all for the generous friendship and support you have extended to my family and me over the last 17 years. Sincerely, Archibald R.

    2019 Annual Report

    2019 ANNUAL REPORT Dear Friends, This has been another year of unparalleled exhibitions and performances, a celebration of what’s possible in our new home and with the support of our community. At the beginning of 2019, we were in the last few weeks of the inaugural exhibition at 120 College Street, Between Form and Content: Perspectives on Jacob Lawrence and Black Mountain College, which was a major accomplishment in its scope and its expansion of community partnerships. Next, we presented an intimate look at the school’s political dimensions, both internal and external, through the exhibition Politics at Black Mountain College. During the same time period, the exhibition Aaron Siskind: A Painter’s Photographer and Works on Paper by BMC Artists revealed the photographer’s elegant approach to abstraction alongside works by others in his circle of influence. From June through August, our galleries filled with sound as part of Materials, Sounds + Black Mountain College, an exploration of contemporary experimental and material-based processes rooted in theories and practices developed at Black Mountain College. We closed out the year with VanDerBeek + VanDerBeek, an exhibition that bridges the historic and contemporary through an intergenerational artistic conversation. 2019 also marked the 100th birthday of Merce Cunningham, and 100 years since the founding of the Bauhaus, which closed in the same year Black Mountain College opened, seeding the latter with its faculty and utopian values. Both centennials sparked global celebrations, transcending geographic and disciplinary boundaries to honor the impact of courageous communities and collaborators. Image credit: Come Hear NC (NCDNCR) | Ken Fitch We joined the world in these celebrations through a special installation of historic dance films of the Cunningham Dance Company at this year’s {Re}HAPPENING, the exhibition BAUHAUS 100, and a virtual reality exploration of the Bauhaus Dessau building, on loan from the Goethe- Institut.

The book is based on letters, extensive interviews, and research about the school. In 1886, Luke and Juliette Dorland, Presbyterian missionaries and educators, retired to Hot Springs, North Carolina. However, at the request of residents in this rural village, they soon were teaching 25 students in their home. Luke Dorland appealed to his former employer, the Presbyterian Board of Home Missions, and $300 was granted for books and equipment. At their own expense, the Dorlands built a two-story frame schoolhouse to accommodate the growing number of students. By 1894, the school, known as the Dorland Institute, had grown to include a girls' dormitory, an expanded schoolhouse, and additional teachers. In 1918, the Dorland Institute consolidated with the Bell Institute, a large day school for girls. Dorland-Bell School now included seven acres of land, boarding facilities for 100 girls in the village, and a 300-acre farm with housing for 40 boys.
