Spirit Wear Online Store

We are excited to share our 24/7 spirit wear store. This store is officially open (CLICK HERE) and will remain open and available at all times with delivery options both to the school (free) or directly to your house (for a small delivery fee). We will continue to work to add new items as time goes on to ensure we are offering a variety of choices. This store is the same company that runs the PND spirit wear store so we expect high quality products from what we have heard from those at PND. 

Questions should be directed to the school office: 309-685-1208 or school@stphils.com

In addition to writing the reflections, creating the artwork and choosing the music, they also created a website as a one-stop-shop for their event. On this website you can also watch a video of the evening presentation.
