 Mr. SANTORUM. Mr. President, I rise today to pay tribute to 
Dr. Paul Phillips for his eight years of service representing Upper 
Providence Township on the Spring-Ford Area School Board in 
Collegeville, PA.
  Dr. Phillips has been active in educational activities for more than 
50 years. His extensive experience includes serving as former 
superintendent in the Morrisville School District in Bucks County and 
former principal in the Haverford and Lower Merion school districts. 
Recently, he has served as a president of the Spring-Ford school board 
and as School Director.
  While School Director, Dr. Phillips' goal was to raise Spring-Ford 
High School SAT scores by 100 points. Not

tenure, Dr. Phillips also saw the construction of two elementary 
schools and a high school, as well as renovations to the middle school.

Phillips for his outstanding service on the Spring-Ford School Board, 
as well as his years of active involvement in educational activities in 
Pennsylvania.
