Mario Rodriguez - Social Studies
Mr. Rodriguez loves St. Matthew’s because of its family atmosphere. The children develop bonds with each other which nurtures their self-confidence and maturity. Parents contribute to this sense of a lively school community too.
Mr. Rodriguez provides an enriching environment that supports the value and joy of learning. Bringing history to life is not an easy task, but Mr. Rodriguez possesses the skills necessary to breathe life into his lessons.
Mr. Rodriguez earned a BS degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Spanish.
St. Matthew’s Episcopal has been blessed to have Mr. Rodriguez with us since 2014 as a lively Social Studies teacher. He brings with him 35 years of experience as an Elementary School teacher from Edinburg CISD.
