Celebrating PhilFest! – 40 Years with Phil Adams

October 3, 2022

On September 17, 2022, we celebrated a special milestone with Phil Adams – 40 years in service to Greenspring Montessori School! Phil has served many roles here over the past 40 years including Physical Education Guide, Toddler Assistant, Discovery Assistant, Coach, and more. We honored Phil’s loving commitment to the children and families at Greenspring with a special event – PhilFest!

Over 400 friends – including current families, alumni, grandparents, past staff and board members, and so many more – came together to play, sing, and dance at this joyous event, honoring our dear friend, Mr. Phil. He was the life of the party and everyone was eager to tell stories and reconnect.

“A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.”

– Henry Adams

Phil is a special presence at Greenspring Montessori School. He goes out of his way to get to know every member of our community. Thank you Mr. Phil for 40 years of service!
