Carolina Day School was founded in 1987 through the merger of Asheville Country Day School and St. Genevieve/Gibbons Hall. There are three predecessor schoolsthat contribute to the rich educational tradition of today's Carolina Day School: St.Genevieve of the Pines, St. Genevieve Gibbons Hall, and Asheville Country Day School. Asheville Country Day School, which thrived on the current campus, was established in 1936 as a private day school. Established in 1908, St. Genevieve-of-the-Pines was a Catholic day and boarding school, which emphasized a strong foundation in the liberal arts. The St. Genevieve property was sold to Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College when the schools merged in 1987. On June 15th, 2015, the lower school started being renovated by Clark Nexson. The renovations included creating a new library, adding solar panels, and other miscellaneous updates. The renovations were finished on January 16th, 2016
