IN CASE YOU MISSED IT...
Our first graders did an AMAZING job on their Black History Month Program highlighting gospel artists. Weeks of research and preparation definitely paid off making the “Gospel Greats” presentation nothing short of… GREAT!
UPCOMING EVENTS
This annual tournament honors Mr. Bryson’s noble legacy and raises scholarship funds to support the education of children in the community. Registration now open through March 17th!
PBL SHOWCASE
St. Philip's Project-Based Learning Showcase on February 26th featured work that students in grades PK2 through 6th have engaged for the past several months. Driving questions ranged from “What should we do with the baby chicks that hatched in our room?” to “How can we redesign buildings in our community to encourage families to move into our neighborhood?” to “How can we make this world a better place?” The resulting projects were insightful, creative, and amazing.
#FEDLISTENS
St. Philip's hosted Fed Listens: A Community Listening Session with Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Richard H. Clarida and Dallas Fed President Robert S. Kaplan. Speakers at the event included St. Philip’s Principal Kellee Murrell, Tahvia Merrill from Miles of Freedom, Sara Gorath from North Texas Food Bank, and more. 

A replay from the event livestream is available here.

Our alumni are going places! Principal Kellee Murrell has said, "The uniqueness of our school centers on the development of the whole child and preparing students for life outside of our walls." Nothing proves this to be true more than the amazing accomplishments of St. Philip's alumni.
