w ^ November 29, 1975 Harbar K. Phillips Chronicle Profile, Living Up To And > >. " Beyond Expectations "As an elementary student at 14th Street School. 1 nmnHiv showed my 6th Grade Teacher my report card. It contained 1A + , 4A's, and 1A-. My teacher looked at me and said, Barbara, you can do better." The above referenced statement would perhaps afford a chuckle to many, but to Barbara Kinard Phillips, principal at Lowrance Intermediate School and Supreme Basileus-Elect of the 75,000 member Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, those wer^| words of encouragement that have dwelt with her for many, many years. "Even as a child,?-said Mrs. Phillips, "a lot has always been expected of me and consequently I have striven to live up to and surpass expectations." At 39 years of age, Mrs. Phillips has a list of accomplishments that could generally surpass those of individuals that are perhaps triple her age. Not only that, her past experiences show that she has kept in mind the words ofher teacher; "You can do better." * Some.of the positions that Mrs. Phillips has held and efficiently handled include: Model Cities Education Program Coordinator, Supervisor - Continuing Education Program, Director of Guidance for several schools, Media ^Spfecialtst," Psychometrist (systemwide), Classroom Teacher, Library Clerk, and Bank Teller. Mrs. Phillips is presently employed with the Winston-Salem Forsyth Co. School System and as she relates, "I am most interested in doing a good job at school and home where I really get the push and inspiration to do a top notch job. I realize that without the aid of my husband and 13-year-old daughter, I could npvpr hnnp tn attain fKo opontnr%11 oV?? ? ?T ??wj/w iv wiiwui ntv uvwuipiuiiiu^iua mai a uillgdlliy 5invc for. Beaming, Barbara relates and expounds on the sharing of duties and responsibilities that go with the smooth operationand co-operativeness of faculty and staff. Says Barbara, 4 4We are 1 committed to developing and maintaining a positive climate, thus assuring that this school is a good place for adults and students to spend a substantial portion of their time. 4 4 In order to create a humane environment it therefore seems imperative that a school have the following apparent characteristics: a pleasant and satisfying place for people to live and work together; a place where pupils with their teachers can work productively to acquire basic skills, clarify values, use a variety of learning processes, and develop constructive attitudes while acquiring an adequate body of knowledge. 4 4 We are presently doing many interesting things at our school such as: LAPS Program (Language Arts Program Skills) Non-Graded, Implementation of strong staff support system in Guidance, Reading, Media, Music, and Physical! Education; ^ Experimental Program in Perceptual and Psychomotor Skills Program in the Reading Content Areas; Implementing parent trainee programs in the Tutoring of Reading, and a Parent Education Program in Guidance in which parent sessions are held during the school day and evenings." Even though Mrs. Phillips is one of the few holders of the Advanced Principal's Certificate (Forsyth County has not more than four), she is presently in the process of completing work for her idtoctorate at UNC-G.
