Sr Marirose: 4th Grade Teacher
Sister Marirose has been an educator for the past 25 years. She came to us directly from the Dioceses of lake Charles, Louisiana where she served as the Director of Religious Education. She is a St. Phillip Bulldog 4th grade teacher and has a love for foster children and is dedicated to serving in the community. This year her class performed a simple act of kindness by filling 20 duffel bags with essential items and donating them to the Prince George's County Dep of Social Services. This humble generosity had a huge impact & demonstrates the compassion Sister Marirose instills in her students.
