We appreciate everyone being so supportive as we wait for guidance from ISBE. As always please reach out if we can help!

The Greenview High School Scholastic Bowl team finished with a Tomahawk Conference varsity record of 7-7 and JV 2-2. They also participated in the Sangamon County tournament virtually and the Athens Regional in-person. This year’s award winners included Claire Waibel and Lucas Schultz for Co-Most Valuable Awards, Samantha Nahlik for Junior Varsity Award, and Cameron Tomko for Bulldog Award. It was definitely a unique season competing virtually but definitely one to remember—glad we were able to have one last season with this very special group of seniors. Best of luck to them in their future pursuits!

Come join the Greenview Bulldogs for the 5th Annual Family Health Walk on this evening Tuesday, May 11 beginning at the school at 6:00 PM. Starting at the school students and their families will pick up their feet and journey on a path around town visiting health fact stations. At each station families will be read a health fact, and upon returning to the school, healthy prizes will be awarded for completing the walk.
