Welcome Students!
Mrs. Herrig- Enlightium Academy-2021/2022 School Year
Introduction
- I was born, raised, and live in rural Minnesota with my husband, son, and two dogs.
- I was blessed to have attended Christian schools from preschool through high school.
- I'm not stranger to online learning! I took college courses online my senior year of high school. In 2017, I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education online through Bemidji State University's (Minnesota).
- I've taught both online and in person.
- Being a teacher is dream come true! I love watching students' excitement and passions come to surface.
- I also love to spend time with my family, read, play the piano, and go to state parks.
- My goal is to help you do your best, be academic successful, and above all, give glory to God. I am so excited to getting to know you all!

Class Expectations
"So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31
Give Glory to God
As it states in Enlightium Family Handbook, the heart is a person's source of a person's words and deeds. When our heart is focused on giving glory to God, everything else is secondary and will fall into place. Let's keep our eyes fixed on Jesus!
Use Your Resources
With Enlightium, you have many wonderful resources at your disposal!
As well as all of the content and lessons on Ignitia, I encourage you to use Livebinders as a first resort. Livebinders is an online library with resources created for you by Enlightium teachers. The library is sorted by concepts or courses. Livebinders is a great resource to help you understand a topic, want to prepare for a quiz or test, or if you just want to dig a little deeper into the subject! :)

Ask! Use me as a resource. Use the "Help" button in Ignitia as a first step. If you're still having trouble, let's chat on the phone or set up a tutoring session. I'm here for you!
Study Habits
As an online student, it is especially important that you make (and stick!) to a plan of good study habits.
- Create a designated area where you can work and be free from distraction
- Make a routine/ schedule for yourself
- Get organized!
- Take notes
- Manage your time effectively
- Step away and take a break when you need to :)
Thanks for reading- see you soon!
