THE GREENHILLS CIVIC ENGAGEMENT AND SERVICE
PROGRAM
interweaves social justice, education, leadership skills, local and global activism, and mentoring.
Greenhills creates opportunities for the entire student body to come together and give back to our surrounding communities throughout the year.
The Middle School program embraces a grade-level thematic approach to service learning and academics, thoughtfully introducing students to civic responsibility. Students in the Upper School are encouraged to give back through individual projects and to contribute as leaders during school-wide activities.
OVER THE YEARS, THE PROGRAM HAS GROWN
to include more opportunities for the entire Greenhills community to work together locally
Events such as All-School Service Days, Family Service Night, and Pathway Adventures offer a chance for students, faculty and parents to work together to make a difference.
