![]() Beatriz Benitez Staff Writer Ms. Phillips is the new assistant principal at Hubbard High School this year. She used to be a teacher, but now she has greater responsibilities. Twelve years ago Ms. Phillips would have never imagined being an assistant principal because all she ever focused on was teaching; once Mrs. Wiley became the principal and chose Ms. Phillips to be the assistant principal, she was ready to take the position head on. As we all know, she has been very involved with making the school better. Ms. Phillips has been on top of enforcing the school rules - especially uniform and attendance. Ms. Phillips has been in Hubbard for her entire education career and she was excited to become the assistant principal, she said, “Hubbard is a great place to be. When the opportunity came I took it.” Hubbard has a magnificent body of students and staff; it’s like home. There’s no other place I would rather be at this point of my career. It’s a wonderful place and to be a part of something that is well structured. I know the students, the staff and that’s why I choose the position as assistant principal.” She misses spending time with her students inside the classroom and getting to know students and being able to help them on a one on one basis. Now that she’s the assistant principal she is more concerned with improving Hubbard. “We have to follow the rules and the school uniform is a rule. Although there are a lot of students that don’t take this seriously for personal reasons, I believe if you can follow the small rules, then you can follow the larger rules and you’ll be better and more productive in society. I know a lot of teachers don’t enforce the rules, which I wish they would, but until then I will continue to enforce them. I will make sure that every student will be in uniform everyday,” said Ms. Phillips. Ms. Phillips concluded, “Hubbard is a great school; it truly is. When I sit down and talk to other education professionals from other schools, we share stories and our school stories are not “bad” as other school stories. Our students are great students.”
