The girls basketball team finished the 2023-24 season feeling like the best was yet to come. The Gryphons had bested the previous year’s record, and they saw the improvement that came from an offseason spent training and conditioning.

The 6th grade team joined its 8th grade (8511) and 7th grade (9895) peers for the 2024-25 season, and finished the season with an invitation to compete at the State Championship.
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.
