Director of Theatre Education

Phillip Anderson is Roncalli's Director of Theatre Education and believes 
that teaching students how to express themselves through the arts is a very 
vital part of their overall education. Educational Theatre involves Science, 
Mathematics, Foreign Language, History, Physical Education, Business, 
Technology, Economics and more. Theatre is taught in schools so one will 
recognize beauty, be sensitive, and have more love, more compassion, and more 
gentleness. 

2011-2012 marks Phillip's fourteenth year of teaching Theatre at Roncalli 
High School. Born and raised in Indianapolis, he graduated from Franklin 
Central High School and continued his education at Anderson University 
receiving a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Education and the University of 
Indianapolis receiving a Masters of Education with an emphasis in Theatre. 
Phillip is a lifetime member of Alpha Psi Omega, the dramatic fraternity.
