Community Outreach ProgramAs a not-for-profit, regionally-based organization, Greenhills School is proud to partner with several, exemplary organizations throughout the course of the year. Greenhills' Community Outreach program provides opportunities to expand the teaching and learning that takes place within the school's classrooms and corridors, on our stage, in our gyms or out on our playing fields. These partnerships provide other non-profit community members access to the many resources Greenhills has to offer, expanding the reach of the school's teaching and learning out into the community.
