  • This school is a wonderful learning environment for everyone. The dress code may be strict, but it's for our own good. I have learned sooooo much Mrs. Hudson does everything she can to make Phillips 5 stars in cleaness,learning activites,P.B.I.S rewards and so much more! What more could ask for. This school takes you out of elementary behavior to mature young men and women ready for 7th grade. Thank you J.A. Phillips staff for everything you give me!
    Sincerely,
    Madam Phillips

  • This is a school with complete order. I think that the principal and staff at Phillips is doing a great job and I appreciate them teaching the children to be responsible with the rules that has been implemented. Breaking rules is a no no and the children know that they will be penalized for it and it makes them make better decisions while they are at school and hopefully it will reflect their lives away from school as well.

  • I really like phillips ,its cool. My favorite teacher is Ms. Dewberry. I like panther paws and stuff like that. The only thing that im worried about is that not having the dance at the end of the year. I really want one , a field day would be okay. But, i think it would be sort of boring. I want a dance because i think it would be fun. maybe starting at like 5:30 or 6 and ending at like 8:30. having punch and snacks ,and getting all dressed up. dancing and music!!!!that would be totally awesome!!!and being able to take our cameras and phones to take pictures!!!maybe do it in the gym or cafetorium. but i like the gym better , that would be really cool to walk on the gym floor and be the class of 2010 dancing on that new gym floor................................................... anyway , i cant wait to go to webster next year but i cant bear to leave phillips!!!
