Please help us give a warm welcome to a new staff member in the district! π
Name: Jina Herron
Role: Special Education Teacher
Building: Wilson Elementary
Hometown: Owatonna
What information would you like to share about yourself?: Iβm married to my husband, Steve, and we have three boys. We live on a small acreage that we absolutely love, along with our dog, two cats, and our most recent addition, our five chickens we raise for eggs. In my free time, I enjoy going for walks, tending to my flowers, and spending time outdoors. But more than anything, doing just about anything with my family is my happy place.
What excites you most about working for Owatonna Public Schools?: Owatonna is education with purpose! They strive to do what is right for all students and I'm excited to be a part of an organization that is so committed to all of its learners.
Welcome to the team, Jina! π
