Each week Phillips has an attendance incentive for classrooms with no tardies . On Friday, those classes without any tardies for the week are placed in a basket to be drawn for a special lunch time with Ms. Fitzgerald. On November 14th Mrs. Rohweder’s class received this honor by having a fun time with Ms. Fitzgerald in the school gymnasium.
