I had a good experience when I attended 2021-2022, however since that time I have only heard negative things about the school. Even when I was there it was far from perfect however it is the main reason I got into college so I have a slightly more biased and positive view of the school.

Our son boarded and attended Phelps for all four years of high school. Because of Phelps' small and nurturing environment our son has grown into a confident learner and self advocate. We can't say enough great things about the teachers and community at Phelps.

The staff and basketball coaches are extremely invested in our son's development. They have played a pivotal role in his student-athlete development. More importantly, the environment has also placed high importance on the development of his character and leadership skills.

Phelps makes a concerted effort to know students as individuals and seek to cultivate in them the needed skills to both be a successful student here and as they pursue higher education.
