Back to School Check in is Open! Once your forms are finished, head over to the new BACK TO SCHOOL HUB webpage. This one-stop page contains info you need to get your Panther's ready for the new school year. Check it out now.
Back to School Check In/OLR will open on Wednesday, July 15. This annual review is REQUIRED of all Greendale Schools’ families. It is an opportunity to review and confirm or update student and family information.
Reviewing this information takes place in Infinite Campus and ensures the school has the most accurate information on student enrollment, correct address and contact information for families, emergency contact details, and health and demographic information for your children. This process must be completed BEFORE the first day of school, September 1, 2026. Student Fees are also due at that time.
Watch for an email message when the Infinite Campus portal is available for OLR. Families must have an Infinite Campus PARENT PORTAL account to complete this process. Please make sure you have an account and can access it. This is the same account you use to review your student(s) report cards. Thank you!

Over its 40 years, it has grown into a world-class celebration featuring participants from the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, and beyond, with a reach of 500 million viewers each year.
The Greendale Marching Band has made numerous high profile appearances, including participating twice in both the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City (2016, 2023) and the Rose Parade (2020, 2026) in Pasadena, California. The London New Year’s Day Parade represents the band’s first international appearance. Check out an announcement video here.

School's Out: Kickoff to a Safe Summer CANCELED 6/11/2026
A message from the School's Out Committee:
If you've been watching the weather, you see that at the moment it looks like it'll be a rough time this afternoon and evening.
As an outdoor event, focused on having a safe summer, we're obviously prioritizing participant safety, and that means we had to make the sad decision to cancel the event tonight. We're brainstorming ways to bring the event back some time this summer, and hope we'll still be able to showcase all the fun, safe, and enriching opportunities our community has to offer!
For those of you willing to brave the weather, a few kids activities will still be available in the community room downstairs in the Greendale Library between 3:00-7:00PM.
Sincerely,
The School's Out: Kickoff to a Safe Summer Organizing Committee

These students spent the day at the Zoo to celebrate the end of their senior year at GHS!
Greendale High School Physics students competed in the 2025-26 Cardboard Boat Regatta this week. Pool repairs postponed this annual spectacle for several months. This fun competition featured 54 teams that built cardboard watercraft secured only with packing tape and raced them in the GHS swimming pool. By the end of the evening, thirty-four of these boats sprang leaks, capsized, or sunk. Congratulations go to team You Wouldn't Steal a Boat (T. McCravens, I. Hanson, C. Niles, and O. Servais) for taking 3rd place, team Coulombs Cutlass (L. Mettille, X. Marquez, L. Curro, and K. Lemberger) for taking 2nd place, and team Momentum Marauders (L. Shibilski, H. Isotalo, J. Hajewski, and R. Hajewski) for winning the competition! A special thanks is extended to the custodial staff and volunteers who helped make the event a success.
GHS Culinary teacher Ms. Seivert ambitiously taught her Introduction to Foods students how to roll and cut their own pasta. Then, students had a choice of sauces to make.
Sra Bernal and Sra Kruschke-Alfonso welcomed the newest group of GHS students into the National Spanish Honor Society! Congrats to all!
Recently, the German Language and School Society (DSSV) of Wisconsin held its awards ceremony honoring outstanding achievement in the 71st annual DSSV German Essay Contest and the AATG National German Exam. Three Greendale students (from left, Kaitlyn Keltner, Gavin Petersen, and Alice Zodrow) were recognized for their exemplary performance. At the same ceremony, their teacher Frau Havas was also honored as the 2026 DSSV Teacher of the Year. Gavin Petersen has also been honored as one of this year's distinguished recipients of the WAFLT (The Wisconsin Association for Language Teachers) Honors in Language Study Award (Top Student). He has exhibited an unwavering passion and drive for language learning both inside and outside the classroom. Herzlichen Glückwunsch!
GHS students who exhibit a strong interest in a career within the trades attended the Construction Career Fair at American Family Field. This event is sponsored by Building Advantage and provides students with an opportunity to learn about pre-apprenticeships, youth apprenticeships, and registered union apprenticeships available during their final years of high school and beyond. Students participated in hands-on demonstrations in the fields of welding, electrical, plumbing, masonry, carpentry, building construction, landscape, and so much more. Students made connections with unions and local contractors for future employment opportunities, as well as explored unique skills, benefits, and career paths offered by different trades and contractors.
Greendale High School celebrated the student-athletes who have chosen to continue competing in the sport while in college. Congratulations to these Panthers who participated in high school athletics at an elite level. Best wishes in your future adventures!

GHS Sources of Strength Members presented at the 2026 Greendale Health Department Mental Health Across the Lifespan breakfast. This gathering brought together local legislators, community members, organizations, and health professionals to foster open dialogue, shared learning, and collaborative discussion around mental health challenges, available resources, and opportunities for collective action across all ages. The students' insights added the youth perspective to the event and highlighted the Greendale program's work with students and staff. Great work, Panthers! Photography by Charlie James.
