Mrs. Jennifer Heady

Welcome everyone! I joined the staff at SGM for the 2024-2025 school year as Middle School Language Arts Support! Raised in a Catholic family with 11 siblings, I am excited about the opportunity to teach at SGM and be part of my students’ growth in their Catholic faith. I graduated from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville where I was also captain of the women’s soccer team. After graduating from SIUE, I taught high school English in Illinois for many years. From there, I taught Critical Reading courses at Southwestern Illinois Community College in Belleville, Illinois. In my personal life, my husband Mark and I have two sons, our older son Ethan who lives in Minnesota and our younger son Grayson who is a junior in college. We are a sports family and love following all St. Louis sports teams. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, staying active, traveling, reading, and trips to Starbucks!
