Meet the #MassCUE Featured Educator for June 2026

Meet the #MassCUE Featured Educator for June 2026 — Matthew Henry, French teacher at Mansfield High School! 🎉🇫🇷

Matthew brings 11 years of marketing and creative design experience into his classroom, where language learning looks a lot like storytelling, media production, and real-world connection. From pivoting a lesson around a live art heist at the Louvre to advising The Buzz — MHS's student-run weekly news show — Matthew's students don't just learn French, they learn how to create something worth sharing.

"The journey of learning is usually less difficult than the fear of starting."
