Principal’s Message

Greetings Panthers,

We’re celebrating BIG at Dr. Phillips High School! We achieved another “B” school grade this year from the Florida Department of Education… and we were so close to an “A”!

This incredible accomplishment is a testament to the hard work of our staff, the resilience of our students, the support of our families, and the strength of our community. Every effort made a difference, and together, we’ve shown what excellence looks like. We’re proud of how far we’ve come and even more excited about where we’re headed. This year, our goal is clear: Let’s earn that A!

We hope you are enjoying the second half of your summer.As we prepare for an exciting new school year, we’re thrilled to invite all of our Panther families to the Pride (Meet the Teacher) on Thursday, August 7th.

Option 1: New Student Orientation 11:00-12:00 Meet the Teacher 12:00-1:30

Option 2: New Student Orientation 5:00-6:00 Meet the Teacher 6:00-7:00

This is a great opportunity for our new cubs to walk their schedule and tour the campus. Our returning panther families can meet their teachers for the 2025-2026 school year. We are excited to welcome both new and returning panthers back to campus.

ParentSquare is the new platform for school-to-home communication. This tool will help us stay connected, informed, and engaged as ‘One School, One Family, One Pride’.Be on the lookout for more information on how to get started with ParentSquare in the coming weeks.
