On behalf of the faculty and administration, greetings and welcome to our new Upper School families! I am excited to meet each of you, our newest members of the community, over the next several weeks.

In fact, please save the date of Saturday, May 2, when we welcome all our new Upper School families to our New Family Placement Testing Day, where you get more detailed information about scheduling, co-curricular, and extracurricular activities available in the 2026-2027 school year.

As you have seen throughout the admissions process, the Upper School provides a diverse set of offerings for every student to explore, discover their passions, and then dive further into those areas of interest. Whether you are excited to perform on the main stage in Rose Hall, to access state-of-the-art opportunities in the STEM + Innovation Center, or to take advantage of the new Athletic Performance Center now under construction, there is something for every member of this community!

It’s an exciting time to be at Greenhill, and we are so happy you have chosen to join this wonderful community. Welcome and see you soon!

Technology

At Greenhill, we have a 1:1 device program for students in prekindergarten through twelfth grade. Fifth through twelfth grades are issued a laptop to use throughout the school year. Students are expected to use their Greenhill-issued device for all their Greenhill work. Because we want to ensure the devices our students use support learning in the classroom, the cost of classroom technology is incorporated into tuition.
