Four weeks out from No. 100!

Kevin Snyder ’19 (wide receivers) is among the coaches getting the Greenies ready for a historic football game with Asheville School on September 26 here in Arden, and you shouldn’t miss out.

RSVP today for Alumni Weekend at www.christschool.org/aw2026

Kevin was always a threat to break a big play with the athleticism and speed that allowed him to win six track state championships and set five school records as a Greenie, continuing his career in the jumps at the University of Houston and Miami.

It’s not the size of the Greenie in the fight; it’s the size of the fight in the Greenie.

Eighth grader Hudson Pettibone ‘31 and the JV football team prompted an unscheduled ringing of the Angelus bell with Thursday night’s 35-0 shutout of East Rutherford.

Going way back.

Greenies in AP Art History traveled thousands of years into the past Thursday morning as they explored Paleolithic and Neolithic art.

With clay in hand, the boys recreated famous ancient artworks, turning a simple art history lesson into something they could shape with their own hands.

Sometimes the best way to understand the past is to try your hand at recreating it.

Ready, set, ride. 🚵‍♂️

Earlier this week, the Outdoor Program’s mountain bikers took off through the lush, wooded trails of campus for an afternoon on two wheels.

Not a bad backyard to have. ⛰️

Jeff Krieger ’12 tossed and turned in his Greensboro hotel bed the night of May 14, 2012, as the first-round leader of the N.C. Independent Schools Athletic Association 3-A golf tournament.

He woke up the next morning and birdied the first hole.

Jeff’s unshakeable discipline in winning the state tournament 14 years ago – just prior to his graduation – carried over into life. He proudly served seven years as a U.S. Army Special Forces Green Beret (with two combat tours in Africa) and is now thriving professionally as Vice President of Capital Raising & Investments with Dynamic Core Capital Partners.

Today’s Throwback Thursday post is to announce Jeff as the next member of the Christ School Athletic Hall of Fame, an induction ceremony which will take place at halftime of the 100th football game with Asheville School on September 26, as part of Alumni Weekend.

Jeff (golf and soccer) is one of only three individual state golf champions in school history – he still holds the Christ School record for 36 holes (139) and led the Greenies to team state titles in 2010 and 2012. He was the 2012 Asheville Citizen-Times All-Western North Carolina Player of the Year and Carolinas Athletic Association Player of the Year, in addition to the Buncombe County Tournament champion as an eighth grader.

As a varsity soccer player, Jeff contributed to the early years of Guy Campbell ’00 returning to his alma mater as head coach.

Jeff played college golf at Elon University. He holds a B.A. from there, a B.S. from the Uniformed Services University, and a master’s degree from Columbia University. Jeff is currently pursuing his MBA through Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management.

Jeff has been with Dynamic Core since 2025 and lives and works out of Raleigh. Dynamic Core is a private equity firm that invests in lower middle market companies in the Specialty Services and Niche Branded Manufacturing industries.

Congratulations, Jeff!

Greenies, if you have not already done so, please RSVP for Alumni Weekend: www.christschool.org/aw2026

Not a bad place to spend a Tuesday. ⛰️

Christ School’s future trips over the mountain to Dollywood will be different for sure, as we join the rest of the world in celebrating the musical and humanitarian legacy left behind by Dolly Parton.

Almost everyone in the Great Smoky Mountains and beyond had a connection to Dolly, and Christ School is no different. In addition to Senior Week visits to her theme park, alumnus Matt Cooper ‘01 and his company, SPRK Lighting, did work on Dollywood’s Big Bear Mountain Coaster (the longest roller coaster in the park).

As you may recall, Matt and his SPRK team were here this time last year to revamp the lighting in Pingree Auditorium.

An honorable man is a better man.

A simple belief and one that has sustained the Honor Council for two decades now, Chairman and fifth-year senior Alec Dzialo ’27 said Tuesday in his chapel reflection.

Alec first joined the Honor Council as a freshman and introduced the rest of the current 15 members this morning. They are Greenies who he helped handpick based on their integrity, character, and ability to maintain the school’s Honor Code, which states that students must not lie, cheat, or steal.

“My hope is for this school to be full of honorable men, people who are who they say they are,” Alec said.

Christ School’s Honor Council for the 2026-27 academic year:

Class of 2027
Lyndon Bryan, John Lloyd David, Jack Dennehy, Patrick Robichaud, and TK Wright.

Class of 2028
Benjamin Ayisah-Quaye, Kiran Kudva, Owen Johnson, and Dominic Rose.

Class of 2029
Billy Barlas, Thompson Goodrum, and Chase Manganiello.

Class of 2030
Scotty Keplinger and Trey Williams.

Chemistry is starting out with a bang💥

Science Department Chair Dr. Brent Harris P'29 has Greenies in Honors Chemistry beginning the year somewhere unexpected: the origins of the universe.

Working in groups through an interactive activity, students are cataloging a few decades of data that lead to the discovery of the expanding universe and the introduction of the Big Bang Theory.

While it may be an unconventional place to begin Chemistry, understanding the Big Bang lays the groundwork for studying how elements were created.

No small beginnings here.
