Students at Greenhill are involved in science courses at virtually every level, from Kindergarten to the twelfth grade. Through these courses they study patterns, natural laws, environmental interactions, and their own growth and development. Hands on, laboratory experiences, coupled with field trips, help integrate the world of science into the expanding World of each student. Integration with their other courses at school is also emphasized. Science teachers pay particular attention to the development of reading and writing skills. Mathematics are necessary at many levels, and the science and math teachers coordinate their goals. The most fundamental skills in science-skeptical observa- tion and analysis-are carefully nurtured throughout the curriculum. Finally, the joy of learning about the world we live in is a key element in the teaching of science at Greenhill. QQ-q' ' Hmm . . . maybe I should have worn a polo.

And finally, the completion of The Cottage and There was an old woman who . . . the arrival of the new Big Toy marked the beginning of the Preschool Power Campaign , a campaign to change the Preschool's traditional low profile on the Greenhill campus. There were Preschool Power Perspiration Parties where parents labored to spruce up the Preschool area, a Preschool Power Parade where the children marched throughout the school with signs proclaiming their interest in being included in a wide range of school activities, and other Preschool Power events, stressing the fact that Preschool parents and kids wanted to get more involved in the life of the school.
