Imagine a school wholeheartedly dedicated to creating a learning experience around the unique needs and passions of each student. That’s Greenhills. In intensely smart classes, our teachers push students to know the depth of what they’re truly capable of — from Jazz and 2D Design to Conceptual Physics.
By the time the Greenhills boys golf team arrived at regionals, much of the work had already been done. The Gryphons had spent months studying courses, refining their swings, sharpening their short games, and learning how to manage every detail of a round. When the opportunity arrived to compete for a regional championship, they were ready, and the team delivered its most complete performance of the season—claiming the regional title and punching its ticket to the MHSAA Division 3 State Finals.
The record doesn’t tell the whole story of the Greenhills varsity baseball team’s season. A glance at the standings might suggest a difficult year for the Gryphons. A closer look reveals something different: a young team that has grown dramatically through adversity, developed valuable depth, and is entering the postseason playing its best baseball of the spring. For head coach Jon Evans, the most meaningful measure of the season isn’t found in wins and losses. It’s found in the progress his players have made since opening day.
Last spring, the Greenhills track and field team arrived at the state meet with excitement and curiosity. Qualifying athletes had earned their place, but for many, simply reaching the state stage felt like an accomplishment. Then something changed. 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.
Competing against more than 50 programs from across the Midwest, the Gryphons captured first place overall in Division III at Midwest Regionals earlier this month, while also finishing an impressive 11th overall among all teams in attendance, regardless of division size. Greenhills also placed second overall in men’s sculling and eighth overall in women’s sculling, which is a remarkable showing for one of the event’s smallest programs.
For the Greenhills girls tennis team, the past two weeks have felt less like a breakthrough and more like the arrival of something hard earned and long in the making. On May 9, the Gryphons won the Catholic High School League (CHSL) Bishop Division championship—the first league title in program history, which it split with perennial power Farmington Hills Mercy. Four days later, the team followed it up with a regional championship performance so dominant it bordered on historic: Greenhills won every single flight, earning a perfect 24 out of 24 possible points against one of the strongest regional fields in the state.
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.
Creating More Together is Greenhills School’s capital campaign to expand the physical heart of our school by creating more space for the arts, engineering and robotics, and togetherness itself. It’s an ambitious building project that includes:
