Testimonials | ThePhillipsAcademy

The Phillips Academy

One of the strengths of our program is the high level of satisfaction that members of our community experience. Here are just a few examples of testimonials from parents, from staff and from our students.

“At the age of 16, my son finally feels like he belongs to a school community. I have seen the staff’s eyes light up when they see him walk into school, and I wish every child could have that experience.”

“I saw all the kids take time to regulate themselves, resolve minor misunderstandings themselves, give each other patience and space, and ask for what they needed. In other words, I saw the evidence of TPA all over each of the kids.”

“TPA has been a safe haven for our son. After years of feeling like he was an unwanted and unwelcome addition to any class, TPA has made him feel like a valued and welcomed member of his academic community.”

“We were bombarded (in the most wonderful way) by staff telling us how much they were enjoying having our son at school. After years of just seeing worksheets, it filled our hearts to see our kid engaged and being encouraged to use all kinds of approaches and creativity to engage in critical thinking and discovery!”

“The individualized nature of TPA has made all the difference for our son. Every staff member, without exception, has been attuned not just to our son’s educational needs but also to his strong desire for connections and support.”
