We are proud to announce the 2025-2026 Phillips High School Bryant-Jordan Award recipients, honoring excellence, leadership, and dedication both on and off the field.

BRYANT-JORDAN SCHOLAR-ATHLETE | Natalee Ward
Developed by the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame in conjunction with the Alabama High School Athletic Association, the Bryant-Jordan Scholar-Athlete Award recognizes seniors who have achieved a high level of excellence academically and athletically. Selection is based on academic standing as well as athletic participation and honors, school leadership, and community involvement.

BRYANT-JORDAN ACHIEVEMENT AWARD | Dorian Hernandez
The Bryant-Jordan Achievement Award recognizes student-athletes who have demonstrated dedication and achievement through their academic and athletic efforts, along with resilience and determination in overcoming adversity. Selection is based on academic, athletic, and personal growth and achievement demonstrated by the student.

Due to the threat of severe weather on Friday afternoon, all after-school activities for Friday, January 9th, will be cancelled. We will continue to monitor the weather and make additional announcements if necessary.

All Marion County Schools will dismiss tomorrow, December 19th, at 12:00 to begin the Christmas Holidays.

PES is hosting a Swamp John's fundraiser this afternoon in the Attie Fleming Building behind the school. Stop by and grab a plate!

•When we return from Christmas break, a phone call and text will be sent to the first two PowerSchool contacts for any student who is absent that day. You should expect to receive that call between 9:20 a.m. and 9:45 a.m.
•Please remember that although absences for exams are counted by semester, the number of absences for truancy is for the entire school year.
o When a student is absent, an excuse must be turned in within 3 days of the student’s return to school.
o Once a student has reached 10 absences, all absences after that will only be excused with a medical or legal excuse.

We hope you can join us! 🎄🥁

Phillips High School JAG students organized and conducted their annual “Thanksgiving Food Drive” for 2025. JAG students collected over 300 food items consisting of canned vegetables, soups, and various packaged foods which were donated to the local Civitan Club. The Civitans included canned hams and distributed the food items to needy families in the Bear Creek community for the Thanksgiving holiday.

This morning, students from Phillips High and Hackleburg High came together for a joint Fellowship of Christian Athletes/Students meeting, and the energy was incredible. The message was led by HHS student Daughtry Gober. Seeing students worship, encourage each other, and build friendships across schools was the highlight of the meeting. Proud of our FCA leaders for creating a space where students can grow, connect, and shine.
