Meet Mrs. Hengst!
My name is Heather Hengst and I teach 6th grade science and 6th grade Success Math at Lexington Middle School. Go Eagles!!! Both of my parents are teachers, so being an educator is in my blood. I am just as excited about my 15th year of teaching as I was about my 1st! It is truly my calling in life. I graduated from Texas A&M, where I worked part time in veterinary research labs. I enjoy taking the experiences I learned in a professional research setting and applying those to my classroom. My favorite part of teaching is watching the next generation fall in love with understanding the world around them! My husband, Greg, raises cattle and farms corn and wheat in Thorndale. We have a five year old son, Kolman, who is the light of our lives and keeps us on our toes! If you are in my class, you will hear plenty of funny "Kolman" stories this year. I look forward to working with you and getting to know you better!
