About
Miss Perry
My name is Erika Perry and I am approaching my third year in Wooster as a language arts teacher. I taught 8th grade my first year and 7th grade last year. I have a bachelor’s degree in Middle Childhood Education: Science and Language Arts (grades 4-9). My favorite part of my job is definitely the kids and I also love the subject matter. One of my favorite things to do in my spare time is read!
I am originally from Springfield, OH which is about 2 hours and 20 minutes southwest of Wooster. I went to Ohio Northern University (GO POLAR BEARS!) in Ada, OH. Many people ask what brought me to Wooster. I was approached by my student teaching adviser at Ohio Northern and she told me to apply to Wooster because they had some openings. I did so immediately, was hired in June of 2009, and the rest was history! I have really grown to love the city of Wooster and see myself staying for awhile.
Some fun things you may want to know about me:
