GREENHILLS CROSS COUNTRY GOES THE DISTANCE
October 24th, 2024
As the 2024-2025 season of cross country winds down, the Greenhills team has a lot to be proud of. This year the Gryphons moved to a new region, introducing fresh competition. The girls squad has seen a resurgence, and the boys and girls teams both had outstanding showings at last weekend’s Catholic High School League (CHSL) championship—including a second place team finish for the boys and third for the girls, as well as the first place girls individual finisher. Now, the team is turning its focus to this weekend’s regional championship and state finals in November.
The Greenhills Volleyball Experience: Competing and Making Long-Lasting Memories
October 17th, 2024
At this point in the girls volleyball season, it’s clear that the Greenhills team will finish with another great record. The team has 18 wins and only six losses, and those losses have come against some of the best teams in the state. But for the Gryphons, competing on the volleyball team is about much more than their record; it’s an experience, and an opportunity to learn lessons that will benefit athletes long after they’ve left the court.

We see the 0.1%
that makes you, well,
YOU.
And we do our very best to draw it out daily. On average, any two people have 99.9% identical DNA. That means what makes you you is what comes from that remaining 0.1%. At Greenhills, we've crafted our entire 6th- through 12th-grade experience (and our approach to teaching) to unleash the full power of that 0.1%. So you can go out into the world — uniquely and confidently you. A one-of-a-kind work of art with the ability to do anything you set your very distinctive brain to.
