Citizens Bank, Midland School District honor Holden Phillips for ‘Shining Like a Mustang’
Holden Phillips, Math Teacher and Bowling Coach for Midland High School, was named Monday to receive the March "Citizens Bank Shine Like a Mustang Award."
With this program, Citizens Bank and Midland School District recognize staff members who shine in their role as a Mustang to live out the district's vision to engage learning at high levels and embrace challenges without fear of failure. Staff nominate the award recipients who receive a Certificate of Excellence, a $25 gift card, and a 16-ounce insulated cup from Citizens Bank. The award is presented at the Midland School Board meeting each month.
One colleague spoke of Holden's continued investment into his students and the district as a whole:
- "Holden is a dedicated and caring teacher who goes above and beyond to support his students, especially those who need extra help in math. He gives additional time and encouragement to ensure students' success. He has also taken on bowling, showing his involvement and positive school spirit. He truly exemplifies what it means to Shine Like a Mustang."
