Parent Oralia Anderson called Henry a “phenomenal force” in her daughter’s daily life at school. “The passion that he brings every day inspires students to be better in everything they undertake,” Anderson said.
Parent Marcy Miller also spoke about Henry's impact on students. “With guidance and encouragement, he has asked them to ask more of themselves. He has tasked them with really delving into how music enriches us, brings us together, identifies where we are from and reflects what we are aspiring to be as citizens of the world,” Miller said.
Henry started teaching 11 years ago. “I just love being with kids and I love to see what they can do because they can do a lot,” Henry said.
