History & Tradition

St. Philip Neri is a Catholic & parochial school in Linthicum, Maryland. On September 8, 1965, Saint Philip Neri School opened with students attending kindergarten through grade four. Each September, another grade was added to bring the school to its educational level of K– 8.

Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur and lay teachers staffed the school from its beginnings. In 1973, after the Sisters of Notre Dame withdrew, three Benedictine Sisters joined the faculty. In 2001, the parish erected a new parish center containing a gymnasium/cafeteria/auditorium.

Our Anne Arundel County private parochial & elementary school is a parish faith community dedicated to fostering the Catholic & parochial faith and educating children in a loving, nurturing environment.

Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, students are given the opportunity to develop their individual potential and acquire the knowledge and Christian attitude necessary to become disciples of Christ.
