"Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all." - Aristotle 

Hi! I am Ms. Henson! I am a first year teacher. Fun fact: I have actually worked in the Orting School District for 4 years at Orting Middle School as a paraeducator. I also attended and graduated from Orting High School. My why for becoming a teacher is that I truely believe every student can reach their own highest potential. As teachers we need to provide them the tools to do so. I couldn't imagine doing any other job. 

A little about myself. I graduated from Central Washington University. I love the outdoors! Anything with hiking, camping, snowboarding, longboarding and backpacking. I also love animals! I have a fur baby named Cooper that is a German Shepard / Husky mix. Many other things I do love are Disney, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, going to the movie theatres, tacos, chocolate oranges, reading, taking my dog to a dog park or for a walk, playing boardgames, organizing and cleaning. I am a fan of the Seahwaks, Mariners, Oregon Ducks, Seattle Sounders and Thunderbirds.
