Guy Phillips Middle School

Posted May 27, 2009

As an 8th grader, I have been at Phillips all 3 years, and have learned a lot. The teachers here are very helpful and nice, and will give you personal assistance if you ask for help studying, on homework, etc. This school has a Leap program, an accelerated learning course for advanced students, as well as many extracurricular clubs and competition teams, like chess, math, theater, track, and other sports. There is also a wide variety of elective classes, and plenty of time to take all the ones you want to. I have noticed that the kids with special needs are taken very good care of. The guidance counselers and the principal knows all the students well, and you can always go to them for any kind of non-academic troubles or advice. This school is wonderful; much better than all of the previous I have been to.

Our child recently started at Phillips, and we have been very pleased. It is an older school, and very much a 'neighborhood school.' The new principal is organized and confident, and seems to have established a good rapport with students, teachers and parents. Our child has good, caring teachers. Three of them are exceptional in their ability to motivate the students and convey the subject matter. The students attending this school are, for the most part, bright and motivated. Many take part in theater, orchestra, band, math team, etc. To my knowledge, there are few discipline problems. There is a bit of an international flavor as several students are here on extended stays from other countries. We have observed that there is quite a bit of (peer)pressure to keep up with one's classmates academically.
