Phillips Elementary School

Today our students enjoyed a cookie decorating experience that gave us some truly priceless moments. This also allowed us to give our classroom teachers (the gift of time) an extra break in their day! 🍪✨
A huge thank you to our incredible PTO for donating the cookies and icing and for volunteering their time to help our students. We are also so grateful to our intervention teachers who stepped up to help make this sweet day possible. These smiles say it all!

Our Holiday Boogie brought the music, the moves, and the holiday magic! 🎄✨ Check out a few moments from this special performance.

Even the Grinch couldn’t steal the joy from campus yesterday! 💚🎄 Grinch Dress-Up Day was a hit!

🎄🦌 What a day at our Annual Reindeer Run! 🦌🎄
We had so much fun dashing through the “snow” together! Our students brought the energy, the laughter, and the holiday spirit!

A BIG thank you to all the parents who came out to cheer, run, and celebrate with us — your support means the world to our kiddos and our campus!

And an even BIGGER shoutout to our amazing PTO! They truly sleighed it this year by:
✨ Providing snacks and drinks for students as they crossed the finish line
✨ Sending out hilarious inflatable-costume runners to cheer on our kids
✨ Sponsoring a LIVE reindeer for students to see and pet — talk about magical!

Thank you for helping make this event unforgettable. ❤️
