​

Philando Divall Castile was born in 1983 in St. Louis, Missouri.  He lived the majority of his life in St. Paul, Minnesota after his mom made the decision to move here to find a better life for their family. 

 

He was a student of the St. Paul school system and dedicated 15 years to the Saint Paul Public School District as a nutrition services assistant at Chelsea Heights Elementary School and Arlington High School (now Washington Technology Magnet School). He was promoted to nutrition services supervisor at J. J. Hill Montessori Magnet School in August 2014. He knew the names of the 500 students he served every day along with their food allergies.  Philando was an ambitious man who served as a role model for hundreds of children.

​​

Outside of work, Philando enjoyed playing video games and spending time with his friends and family, with whom he was very close.  He was known for his quiet and calm demeanor, big heart, and huge smile.  His death has left a large hole in the community.
