GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Philip High School is a wonderful place of education, and I enjoy having our girl attend the. For a small town Philip offers a good variety of sports, activities, groups, and opportunities. We are lucky to have such a great school system in our rural area.

I love being in the small class of 19. Everybody becomes like a family. It is really nice to have so many people in one place that you know care about you. The teachers are all extremely nice and would bend head over heels for any of the students. I really am going to miss being here with what I consider my family. The only thing that I would like to see change would be to incorporate different classes. It feels like everybody is in all the same classes because there is not much to pick from. This is mostly because of our small school size.

Philip High School is one of the most academic inclined schools in the state of South Dakota. We have great teachers that make it very easy to learn and help prepare for the future. Our school has been named a distinguished school district for multiple years and many of the students are ready for college when they graduate. Our sports also stand out upon many others in South Dakota. Our football team has made the playoffs the last four years and made it to the semifinals in 2014; also have had a handful of All-State athletes. The volleyball team has made it to the district championship the past several years and last year they were fortunate enough to make it to the State Tournament (7th place).
