Celebrating 125 Years of the Long Green Line

The sunshine pouring through the stained-glass windows of St. Joseph’s Chapel on Wednesday warmed everyone inside on a balmy November morning.

RJ Fox ’25 may no longer be here in physical form, but signs are all around that his presence and spirit never left the Christ School community, and never will. 

Monday's presentation of President's Volunteer Service Awards came with a heightened sense of school pride. 

Why not in light of recent events?

Greenies of all ages came to the aid of Western North Carolina in its time of greatest need, back in September and October when every good deed was needed to jumpstart the recovery from Hurricane Helene. This outpouring by the boys, our alumni, families, and friends all melded into what is a year-round commitment to service here, disaster or no disaster. 

A late-November surprise!

Christ School and Asheville School have agreed to a makeup date for “The Game,” falling on the weekend that Thanksgiving Break begins. 

Moments like this come without warning and test the fiber of lesser communities. The indomitable spirit and brotherhood found at Christ School have a 125-year head start on Hurricane Helene.

Because we are Greenie Strong, this historic 125th anniversary will be celebrated with the joy and reverence it deserves.

The countdown is on for the 125th Celebration and Alumni Weekend. We are watching the weather and want to provide you with a few updates that will make your return as enjoyable as possible.
