Mrs. Henry's Website

 Hello Tygers. I have been teaching for 15 years, all in the Mansfield City Schools. I received my bachelors at The Ohio State University and my masters at Findlay University. I love teaching here in the city schools and seeing my students grow in all areas but especially when they find the joy in reading.

I am married and have four boys, aged 3-11, who attend Spanish Immersion in the Mansfield City Schools. We love spending time at our boys sporting events, being outside, playing games and spending time with family and friends.
