Melissa M. Henkel

3rd Grade Teacher

BA in Elementary Education, UW-Milwaukee

I have experienced great joy from being a part of the St. Charles Parish and School community for over thirty years, starting as a parishioner, teaching preschool Sunday mornings, and substituting for Religious Education. Within the past twenty years, I have been an aid in kindergarten through 8th Grade and taught part-time for middle school math and kindergarten. During these last fifteen years, I have been blessed by being the third grade teacher. I have been active in the school community as a parent, as well.

The family feeling I receive when I attend Mass or meet with my co-workers is what has kept me at St. Charles. Being able to help children grow spiritually and academically is incredibly important to me. I'm so grateful that God has led me here!
