Ms. Henderson
 Ms. Henderson is
our Counselor here at St. Katharine Drexel School; she has been here for
two years. Among other things, Ms. Henderson likes to teach the
importance of getting along with each other, no matter how different we
are. She likes to make her time with the kids as fun and humorous as
possible.
During her life,
Ms. Henderson has always “counseled” others in one way or another. Her
decision to become a Counselor came naturally to her. What is Ms.
Henderson’s favorite thing about her job? She says, “I love to listen
to the thoughts and ideas of children. They are so smart! It is also
fun to listen to and talk to the teachers and staff here at SKDS—they
are great!”
As a young child,
Ms. Henderson moved around quite a bit. The place in which she lived
the longest was Watertown, WI. Currently, she lives in Beaver Dam. She
comes from a large extended family and is close to her Aunties, Uncles,
and cousins. Her Mom has “3 fun sisters—this is like having 3 more
Moms.”
In her spare time,
Ms. Henderson enjoys doing anything creative and artistic. She also
loves to read. She admits, “Sometimes a great book can become a problem
when I am supposed to do other things!” She has a small garden at her
house, and shares a very large garden at her Mom’s home. Ms. Henderson
also works for the Wisconsin Early Autism Project as a therapist.
Ms. Henderson’s
words of advice for students: “Keep an open mind!”
Her favorite
quotation? “The mind is like a parachute—it will only work when
opened.”
