School Reviews

5 12/13/2025

My son (a junior) has absolutely thrived at The Phillips Academy (TPA). He arrived a bit of a wild child, unable to read or do basic one-digit addition. D has now closed the gap to such an extent that he spends mornings at TPA and afternoons at his assigned high school, including making Varsity sports. His self-esteem is SO much higher than it ever has been. TPA laces strong scholarship based in critical thinking with unconditional Love and acceptance. The combo could not be a more effective container for D as he stretches to reach his full potential.
