about me

Sports

I have been involved with my High School Swim Team all four years.

Work

I work for a local nonprofit that focuses on creating a more “fulfilled and flourishing world.”

Community Service

For the past five years, I have participated in summer camps focused on the well-being of elementary-aged children in our community.

Hello! I’m so glad you’re here!

I’m Mary Herrington, a current student at Marion High School who hopes to become an Elementary Special Education Teacher. Over the past year, I have been blessed to engage in internships at local elementary schools in my hometown. Each experience has helped me understand where I feel comfortable and called to be.

As the youngest of five, I have always longed to take care of someone the way I was cared for. One way I’ve been able to do this is through a local non-profit in my area that hosts summer camps for elementary-aged kids every year. This summer camp works with small groups and focuses on emotional regulation and children’s well-being. Through this program, I have experienced many situations that have led me to continue working with kids.

This website introduces my previous experiences, my current skills, and the tools I have learned in my current Indiana University class.
