At the center of everything we do is what matters most: your child.
|
Greenhills is an Ann Arbor independent school for kids in grades pre-K through 12. That independence means we aren’t bound by convention or bureaucracy. Instead, we focus all of our energy on knowing, loving, challenging, and inspiring young minds. |
This is a place where students discover who they are and what they’re capable of. Where relationships shape education, and every day is filled with questions, breakthroughs, belly laughs, and the kind of growth that makes students love learning. |
Where every student is known. Really known.
At Greenhills, your child will be seen for who they are and who they’re becoming. Teachers don’t just teach content; they coach, advise, champion, and connect. They’ll know when your kid nails a tough assignment, and when they need an extra nudge to take a risk, when they shine on stage or lead a club, and when they’ve had a rough day.
We’ve created an environment that makes this possible. From daily advisory and grade-level forums that create a sense of place and belonging, to faculty-led conversations focused on students by subject, grade, and division.

A just-right sized community

Greenhills is intentionally sized, with about 100 students per grade in grades 6–12 and 30 per grade in the Lower. It's the kind of place where everyone’s name is known. And still, there’s enough room to find your people. Smart is cool and kindness is common. |
Shared spaces bring us together. Cozy forums and alcoves anchor each grade. Flexible commons invite collaboration and conversation. Students arive early and linger late. They connect. They belong. And joy shows up every day. |

Cultivating intellectual curiosity and deep thinking.Our students don’t just absorb information—they engage with it, question it, and use it to solve real-world problems. With passionate teachers, small classes, and a culture of inquiry, we create an environment where deep thinking and bold ideas thrive. |
|
The power of teamwork.We believe the lessons of sport mirror the best of education: the pursuit of excellence, the power of teamwork, and the discovery of personal strength through challenge. Our program welcomes all students to participate, to compete with heart, and to grow into strong, ethical, and gracious athletes. |
|
Creativity made visible.Creativity thrives at Greenhills, where students explore, experiment, and refine their artistic voices. From studio art to music, theater to digital design, our students discover new ways to express themselves and connect with the world. Whether picking up a paintbrush, stepping onto the stage, or composing original music, Greenhills artists are supported by expert faculty and a vibrant creative community. |
|
A community of kids becoming good people.Through meaningful service learning, daily conversations about character and compassion, and intentional diversity, equity, and inclusion work, our students grow into thoughtful, kind, engaged citizens who care deeply about others and their communities, and better the world. |
|
Where students feel seen, supported, and inspired.At Greenhills, students are part of a just-right-sized community—big enough to find their people, small enough that each student is known. It’s a place where kindness is the norm, curiosity is contagious, and being smart is genuinely cool. |
|
Here, students can be more than one thing.
This is where students can lead the robotics team and be the lead in the musical. A love of astronomy might spark an astrophysics club. Where a soccer player can find their voice in debate. Our curriculum and extracurriculars are packed with options so kids can dive deep, dabble widely, and find themselves along the way.

Track and Field Proves it Belongs Among Best in State
Last spring, the Greenhills track and field team arrived at the state meet with excitement and curiosity.

The Gryphons didn’t just participate—they competed, scored points, and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the best programs in Michigan and realized they belonged there. This season, they returned with a different mindset.
