Archbishop Carroll High School Congratulations are in order on two fronts to Religion Department Chairperson and Theology teacher Charlene Howard. August 2020 marked her silver anniversary (25 years) as a teacher in the Archdiocese of Washington (past 12 years at Carroll) and she was elected this summer to the Pax Christi USA National Council. Ms. Howard is a fifth generation African-American Catholic raised in D.C. and an active (tireless!) member of St. Teresa of Avila parish. She earned degrees from Boston College and The Catholic University of America and has worked as a teacher and advocate for children with disabling conditions and as an elementary school (St. Francis de Sales) teacher and administrator. We are blessed with Ms. Howard’s catechetical and liturgical knowledge, enthusiasm, and rich spirit she shares with our community!
