- Rating:
(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am in the 9th grade and am excelling in high school due to the exemplary program at Phillips Preparatory School. The teachers at this school demand excellence from their students in order to make sure that they work hard enough to move on to the next grade. If the students do not show enough effort through their grades, they are pushed into another public school. This school truly produces excellence from pruning the students not working up to par from the determined hard-working students who pass this program.
