Harding University High School is located at 2001 Alleghany Street, in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The Harding University High School Band of Gold, led by director Anthony Jones, made national coverage in January 2009 for their invitation to the 56th Inaugural Parade of President Barack Obama.

The 110 person marching band made headlines for the fifty thousand dollars needed to travel to Washington, but were initially unable to raise the funds.

(1992–Present) Dorothy Counts was the first black student admitted to the Harry P. Harding High School in 1957.

She was one of the four black students enrolled at various all-white schools in the district for the first time in American history.
