About the Administration

 

Philip D. Chapman, Principal

Phil has been married to Shari for 10 years, and they currently live in Oswego.  They have been blessed with 3 gorgeous daughters who melt their Daddy’s heart!  

 

Allison is 8 years old and enjoying the 3rd grade, while Mattie is 6 years old and exploring school for the first time.  Molly is the baby who just turned 2!

 

Phil first entered the doors of East View Elementary in 1998 as a student teacher while attending Northern Illinois University.  After graduating from N.I.U. that spring, he accepted a job as a Youth Pastor in Bloomington, MN where he served for just 1 short year.  Phil quickly found his heart being pulled back to the gymnasium where he enjoyed teaching basketball and cartwheels to smiling kiddos.  Ironically, a position opened up at East View and he was thrilled to hear he was selected for the job. 

 

Phil then put his love for technology to work by serving as the Internet Services Manager for District 308 from 2002-2005.  He is thankful for his experience in that position as it provided him with a global view of the district as well as a greater respect and understanding for the community as a whole.    However, his love for children led him back into the elementary building, but this time as an Assistant Principal.  He has served in this capacity at Old Post Elementary as well as East View Elementary.

 

Southbury Elementary will be Phil’s new home, and he is so proud to be the leader of such an amazing group of students, parents, and staff.  He is anxious to meet each and every parent and student who will make Southbury their home.  He looks forward to all of the exciting things that are ahead for not only Southbury Elementary, but District 308 as a whole.  Phil will continue to embrace the district's philosophy of having high academic expectations with a caring school climate.
