Hello, I am Mrs. Heather Ritchey! I am originally from Bowling Green, Missouri and graduated from Hannibal-LaGrange University with a degree in elementary education.  After graduating from college, I taught in the Bowling Green School District. After marrying my husband, Mark, I moved to Callaway County and taught in the North Callaway School District.  Over the past thirteen years, I’ve taught K-5 and was a K-3 literacy coach. 

Mark and I moved to Jefferson City over the summer. We have a yellow lab named Peyton.  In my spare time, I enjoy reading, baking, watching the St. Louis Cardinals, and spending time with my family. Mark and I are the youth leaders in our church and are always planning our next Disney vacation.
