Big Volleyball Win Builds Confidence and Keeps Team Atop Conference
September 16th, 2021
It was early in the first set against Austin Catholic High School when senior Anna Zell, one of six seniors on the volleyball team, took the ball to serve for Greenhills. But by the time Zell relinquished the ball, the match was more or less over. Propelled by a dominant serving run from Zell, who won nine straight points — including four aces — the Gryphons pulled away and never looked back.
Varsity Athletes Lead Skills Clinic to Mentor Middle School Teams: Part I
September 16th, 2021
When the Greenhills Boys Tennis team warms up, one of their exercises is a dynamic wrist stretch. During that stretch, the entire team shouts “get the wrists!” No one really knows why; it’s just the kind of thing you pick up on a high school team.
Cross-Country Team Finds Its Mojo at First Full Team Meet of the Season
September 9th, 2021
Ask any cross-country runner and they’ll tell you: there’s no better feeling — none — than reaching the end of a race. Crossing the finish line, flopping down in the shade among teammates, finishing what feels like half a bottle of water in one large gulp...it’s the essence of cross country, and it doesn’t get any better than that.
Boys Soccer Drops a Close One to Cranbrook, Belies Competitive Play
September 2nd, 2021
The outcome was decisive. The game play, however, was anything but. The Greenhills Boys’ Soccer team took the field against Cranbrook Tuesday, and played to what can only be described as a virtual stalemate. There were no easy goals; no booming shots; nobody running away from the pack on either side. Greenhills allowed two goals on what amounted to toss-ups.

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.
