We’re moving slowly through Matthew here. I hope you’re enjoying that. I’m certainly enjoying it. Let’s take two little steps forward.

You might notice that nearing the end of Chapter 2 in Matthew that the Gospel quotes two passages from the Old Testament. Those passages are Hosea 11.1 & Jeremiah 31.15.

What is that all about?

Christ School Fall Theater will present “Greater Tuna” twice this month, October 25 (7 p.m.) and October 26 (4 p.m.) in Pingree Auditorium. 

Suddenly, a state championship looks like it’s there for the taking. 

Christ School varsity soccer is only gaining momentum for the NCISAA 4-A playoffs after sweeping its regular-season series with four-time defending state champion Rabun Gap. 

CARY - Another epic weekend race, another head-turning milestone win.

Many who follow the sport consider the Great American Cross Country Festival’s Race of Champions to be the Southeast’s premier meet. Christ School won it Saturday for the first time in school history with 150 points, edging second-place Jesuit (156 points) out of New Orleans. 

Many of the same timeless values have sustained Christ School and the National Honor Society for more than 100 years. 

High character, leadership, scholarship, and service beyond self are not the kind of things that go out of style or lose their meaning. 

Circumstances beyond anyone's control or imagination cancelled Alumni Weekend in 2024.

Amid the cleanup and recovery from Hurricane Helene, we as a community learned more about the current health of the Long Green Line than we ever would have without the storm.

What began as a weather disturbance in the Caribbean came to our doorstep one year ago this week. 

High winds and rain from Hurricane Helene knocked down more than 1,000 trees on campus, leaving Christ School without power for weeks and drinkable water for more than a month. The Asheville area, in general, suffered unfathomable damage that claimed 108 lives statewide. 

The nostalgia that kicks in at the front gate is real.

It’s especially apropos to hear Emmett Paradine ’22 describe his return to campus earlier this month with our first Alumni Weekend in two years taking place next weekend.

We’re only 8 days out from the start of Alumni Weekend and there is still time to RSVP. 

Matt Cooper ’01 is one of the Greenies who has said he is coming back, just over a month after he and his team at SPRK Lighting performed a major revamp of the audio, video, and lighting inside Pingree Auditorium.

What makes a Greenie special cannot be ascertained or seen from the outside. 

Another universal truth begs to differ – a Christ School senior will never be the same, in his eyes or the eyes of others, after wearing his green blazer for the first time. 

Born out of tragedy, sustained by purpose. 

A National Day of Service and Remembrance was first inspired by one of the worst days in American history – September 11, 2001. 

Christ School students and faculty have been part of their own observance for the past 15 years, even though our Day of Service is very much a small part of a year-round commitment to service learning.  

Expert coaching, many disciplines, and the naturally wondrous playground known as the Blue Ridge Mountains.

The origin of the Christ School Outdoor Program can be traced back to the 1970s, and it really came into its own in the 1990s under Greenie Legend Leigh Harris. Today, the program is more adventurous and robust than ever.

Last spring’s Advanced Placement testing took place in respectful silence, now giving us something to loudly brag about.  

Dean of Academics Emily Pulsifer P’15, P’17 announced Friday that this year’s class of AP Scholars is nearly identical in count (26 boys) to the number of AP courses offered by Christ School (27). 

“At Christ School, the people make the place,” Wait McCormick ’26 said Monday. 

“And I can’t express how grateful I am as an only child to have so many brothers. I’ll never forget all the nights where I didn’t do any homework because I was busy making memories that will last a lifetime.”

Every championship team needs one. 

An indispensable player willing to take on the duties that don’t often get clipped or shared on social media. 

SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Eye Opener, indeed.

Christ School’s nationally-ranked cross country team lived up to all preseason accolades and plaudits Saturday, winning one of the Carolinas’ biggest and oldest meets for the first time in the program’s history.

Matt Cooper ’01 is Principal Designer and Founder of SPRK Lighting, an award-winning lighting design company which has worked with clients such as Disney, Dollywood, Silver Dollar City, Bass Pro Shops and more to accentuate their attractions, theme parks, and events. 

Faithful brothers through and through.

A musical refrain from the school alma mater, "Sing to Thee, Christ School Eternal," sums up the theme of Sunday night's Convocation.

The full schedule is set for Opening Weekend at Christ School!

Undeniably one of the best days of the year, every year!

The silence that falls over campus during the summer is gone, while Christ School’s buildings and grounds are once again filled with boys, just as they were intended.
