About Mrs. Henry

Hello! I am Mellissa Henry. This is my 21st year to serve in the White Oak community.

I attended Jacksonville College and Stephen F. Austin State University.  I hold two degrees from Stephen F. Austin State University: Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies (specialization in mathematics) and a Master of Science in School Mathematics Teaching.  It has always been my desire to teach at the secondary level.  I taught 6th through 8th-grade math and Pre-Algebra at White Oak Middle School for 6 years from August of 2001 through May of 2007.  I rejoined the WOMS faculty in August of 2011, as a Pre-Algebra and Algebra teacher, and held that position through May 2020, when I moved into a high school math position at WOHS.  This year I will be teaching:  Algebra 2, Math4 College Prep, Dual Credit College Algebra, Dual Credit Statistics, and Pre-Calculus. I also coach UiL Number Sense and Calculator. In addition to working at WOISD, I work as an adjunct math instructor for Kilgore College.

Things I enjoy: reading, working jigsaw puzzles, RV camping, serving in my church, and spending time with my family, my friends, and my two dogs (Bear and Daisy).

Grading Procedures

GENERAL GRADING PROCEDURES
1. A minimum of 3 major grades and 10 daily grades will be given per grading period.
2. Grades will be posted in Skyward as soon as possible. Please allow 3 to 5 days for the teacher to post daily grades and at least 5 days to post major grades. If a student has been absent and there is make-up work, it may be longer. Skyward defaults to “missing” if a grade has not been entered. That does not necessarily mean the student has not turned in the work yet.
3. Because math is a course that builds from day to day, the math department has a procedure regarding late work, 70-50-0. If an assignment is turned in one day late, the student can receive up to a 70. If an assignment is turned in two days late, the student can receive up to a 50. Then on the third day, the assignment will receive a zero, unless there are extenuating circumstances, and the student has contacted the teacher and discussed the situation and together they have made a plan. If a student is habitual about turning in late work, they will be given a discipline referral to the office. If the student is in an honors course, they may be taken out of honors and moved to a regular course.
