The Middle and Upper School Quiz Bowl teams saw numerous successes throughout the year, including a strong finish with the Greenhill A Team of Maya Jagsi '26, Aaron Kuang '26, Kate Ponnambalam '26, Evans Senvalds '26 placing third out of 141 teams in the 2022 Middle School National Championship Tournament. This is the highest a Greenhill team has placed at this national tournament. This remarkable team also won their second state championship in a row.

The Middle School Team made Greenhill history by earning the 1st place trophy in the Silver Division, the division exclusively designated for Middle School and Lower School Programs. Greenhill Upper School JCL students received 2nd place in Sweepstakes Gold Division, the division for high school and upper school programs with 10 to 29 competing students. 

Lower School Projects


Lower School students were thrilled to resume favorite culminating projects like the Second Grade City Project where students create cities out of recycled materials, the Fourth Grade Amazing Race where students solved challenges all over campus, and the Primer Play where students performed for their families.
