New Faculty and Staff: Letitia Yoder

Worthington Christian welcomes Letitia Yoder as the Ninth Grade English teacher in the Upper School. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree from Grace College in Secondary English Education with a minor in Journalism, an MS Endorsement, and an ESL Certification. Letitia is a familiar face at WC, as she has served as a substitute teacher here. She and her husband, Mike, have four children – three WC grads and their youngest entering her junior year this year. Their family attends Grace Polaris Church.

We asked all of our new staff members several “getting to know you” questions; we hope you enjoy learning a bit more about Letitia!
