Heather Wells began substituting at Grace Community School in 2023 and transitioned to teaching second grade in 2025. She started her teaching career in 2012 and taught kindergarten for a total of six years in Van, Mineola, and Lindale. Heather has been married to her husband, Jonathan, for nearly thirteen years. They have two children, Evan and Ella, who both attend Grace. When Evan began kindergarten at Grace in 2020, their family officially became part of the Grace Cougar community, which they have grown to deeply love. In addition to teaching, Heather and her husband own a small family business in Lindale called Main Street Produce and Plants. She enjoys reading as much as possible and traveling with her children and husband to new places. Heather also finds joy in being outdoors and soaking in the beauty of God’s creation, whether driving to catch the perfect sunset or simply watching her kids play at home. Her family attends Green Acres Baptist Church in Tyler.
