Who We Are

Background

The Ashbrook Foundation, Inc. (Foundation), established on January 15, 2017, is a nonprofit organization established to enrich student learning experiences and teacher effectiveness. Through a variety of fundraising efforts and relationships in the community, the Foundation will offer financial assistance for students, grants for teachers, support the arts and music instruction, athletic programming, fund technology, and provide for physical enhancements to the school. 


It's through the generosity of our alumni and donors that the Foundation will be able to maintain the educational experience that has been historically present for over 9 decades originating from the opening of Gastonia High School in 1924, the name change to Frank L. Ashley Senior High in 1955 and ultimately the merger with Holbrook Senior High that led to the opening of Ashbrook High School in 1970.
