}} Asheville School is a private, coeducational, college-preparatory boarding school in Asheville, North Carolina. Founded in 1900, the Asheville School campus sits on amid rugged mountains and currently enrolls 275 students in grades nine through twelve. ==History== Asheville School was founded in 1900 by Charles Andrews Mitchell and Newton Mitchell Anderson. Previously, the pair founded the University School in Cleveland, OH in 1890. The founding of these two schools was a daring experiment in preparatory education, as it challenged the time-honored system of British classical education. Anderson understood Asheville School as a place where boys could prepare for college or for the business world, where the body, through organized athletics, would be trained as well as the brain, and where boys could learn constructive work with their hands as well as their heads. Fifty-three boarding students from grades 5-12—called "forms"—were enrolled that first year. Since the beginning of the 20th century, Asheville School has carefully maintained the integrity of its original Tudor-style buildings while also incorporating newer structures into the campus master plan. The school was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Asheville School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
