St. Philip Day School Update
Presented by: Candice Harris, Director and the board of directors
Join us again on rally day, September 6, for the fall term kickoff. Below is a Candice Harris, the Director of St. Philip Day School, who brings years of relevant experience and lots of passion and determination to the leadership of SPDS, will give us an update on the successes and challenges of operating the day school since opening on December 2025.
St. Philip Day School offers high-quality, Christian-based Early Childhood Education to children 8 weeks through 3 years of age from low-income families in Harris County. Through an innovative cooperative childcare model, parents who complete training in Early Childhood Education and Health & Safety volunteer one day a week in a classroom as a Parent Educator. In return, they receive five days of tuition-free childcare per enrolled child.
St. Philip Day School is a separate 501(c)(3) organization from the St. Philip Presbyterian Church, with its own board, bylaws, and personnel structure.
Adult Bible Study | Room 204
Bible study is an ongoing and thorough investigation of the multi-dimensional Word of God. In this class, we also consider the insights of other translations and scholars to deepen our understanding of God’s continuing message of faithfulness to God’s people.
