These students worked hard all year, building on their outstanding performances at the area competition in February and the state convention in April.
These achievements are nothing short of impressive, and Greenhill and their teachers are so proud of their dedication, teamwork, and enthusiasm for the classics.
Congratulations on this accomplishment!
