History
St. Philip's Episcopal School was started by a group of dedicated parents and parishioners that desired to foster their children's education in a Christian environment. In September of 1961, St. Philip's opened its school with 35 students in two classes: kindergarten and first grade. Knox Hall, containing three classrooms, was erected in 1966. A third grade class was started in the 1978-1979 school year. For two years in the mid 1980's, fourth and fifth grade classes were added. Then in 1994, land and two buildings adjacent to the school were donated to St. Philip's which allowed for a new school office and the addition of fourth, fifth, and sixth grade classes in what was to be named Hattie Hall. In 2000, a Sports Court was completed. In 2002, a third building, named Woodward Hall, was donated and housed second and third grade. In 2004, a building was purchased for a Resource Center that houses the School Library and Computer Lab. In 2006, the church purchased three apartments adjacent to the school playground and converted them into classrooms. These classrooms were named Miss Irene Hall, and house the second and third grades and the special classes room.
