December 6, 2024
The core value for the month of December is Joy! Paul wrote to the Church, “Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I will say it. Rejoice!” As we participate in God’s redemptive work in this life and the life to come, Joy sustains us throughout our trials and fills our hearts regardless of our circumstances.

CSM Theatre Department’s 2024 Spring play Video| The Plot Like Gravy, It Thickens
"The Collegiate School of Memphis Theatre Department's spring production, The Plot Like Gravy, It Thickens, was a delightful and witty exploration of comedy and mystery. This fast-paced, hilarious play kept audiences on the edge of their seats with its clever twists and quirky characters. Under the direction of our talented Theatre Department, students showcased their incredible acting, timing, and teamwork, creating an unforgettable experience for all. The production highlighted the hard work and dedication of our students, and we are proud of their commitment to bringing such an entertaining performance to the stage. Thank you to all who supported our budding stars!"
