Golden Apple Award: Congratulations to Marti Henderson!
HENRIETTA, N.Y. (WROC) — Congratulations to our latest Golden Apple Award winner, Marti Henderson. Henderson teaches Physical Education at Sherman Elementary in Henrietta. Throughout her 36 years of teaching, she has inspired countless others with her dedication and guidance. 'I've known Marti for over 33 years. We've been together through friendships, different disciplines, different districts and throughout all that time, Marti is the consummate professional. She is so good to her students of course, but she is also really good to us,' Henderson's colleague Anne Marie Leo-Catapano said. 'Not just the young teachers, she inspires and takes good care of them, but she's also very helpful to seasoned teachers. She is everything you want in a colleague, she really is.' Principal Dave Passero said, 'She wears her heart on her sleeve. Every single child matters, and she makes sure that she finds a way to engage each and every student.' For the past six years, Henderson has been teaching Physical Education. The kids call her coach. But, prior to that, she was a science teacher. No matter the subject, she has always been someone students can turn to. Colleague Julia Brongo said, 'She's the go-to person where if they are struggling with insecurities or what have you, they know they can go to coach. She just gives sound advice. She teaches to the whole child, not just Phys Ed, but how to be good humans.' Colleague Keyshawn Brown adds, 'She's taught me a lot of things about being a good teacher and classroom management techniques, how to talk in front of people, project my voice. There's been countless things she's done to help me over the past 2 years.' Mrs. Henderson has decided that this will be her last year teaching. She is retiring after 36 and a half years. Teaching wasn't her first career choice, but it was the right choice. 'After college I became a scientist, and I just didn't love it. But I did love the sciences, so then I decided after that career that I was going to pursue my teaching degree. So I went back to school got it and have loved every minute of it since,' Henderson told News 8. She will be missed, but leaves knowing she has made a difference. She recalls a visit from a former student a few years ago. 'She came over with flowers and balloons and said I just wanted to let you know that I was inspired by your teaching of science and I became a scientist, and I just had to come and tell you…You just don't know what you are going to say or do that could change it for somebody,' Henderson said. Sound advice from a great teacher. Congratulations Marti! Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

‘It's dangerous:' Tenants at Cobb apartment complex detail history of problems
Some families are concerned about a Cobb County apartment complex they live in. Shanika Campbell told Channel 2 Cobb County Bureau Chief Michele Newell, she is moving out of the Silver Creek Apartment complex, on Riverside Parkway. 'It's dangerous, it's danger cause kids be running up and down the hallway,' said Campbell. [DOWNLOAD: Free WSB-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] Campbell is referring to a ceiling in the lower-level breezeway of her building, that appears to be caving in. Outside of the building, there is a massive tree that tenants said toppled over during a storm last year. The security gate on the property is broken and numerous mailboxes are also broken. Some tenants told Newell the empty rusted pool has been closed for years. In 2024, Cobb County officials deemed one of the buildings on the property unsafe, but some residents who filed lawsuits against the owners and property management group refuse to leave. Tenant advocacy groups have stepped in to help, emailing city, county and state leaders, among other things. 'People don't truly understand what they are owed,' Stan Lucas, COO of Lease Wisely said. 'We just been updating residents to make sure to check their leases,' Founder of We Thrive in Riverside Rentals Association said. 'There have been multiple ownerships and property management changes over the last several years which has led to a lot of confusion a lack of paperwork and a lack of understanding of what those policies are,' Lucas said. READ MORE: Families who were ordered to leave 'unsafe' Cobb apartments now suing owners, property managers John Marti is the CEO of EMBA Management Group. Marti said his company began managing the property in 2023. Marti said he goes into distressed properties to turn them around. He told Newell the Silver Creek Apartments were purchased as a distressed property. He said revenue has taken a hit, due to a large number of tenants failing to pay rent, a problem he said he and the owners are addressing. 'The apartment complex still has it mortgage to pay, the insurance to pay, the utilities on the property and there's not enough money to pay those bills,' Marti said. 'The current owners have been putting their personal funds into the property to keep it afloat until we can get new investors in to do capitol repairs,' Marti said. The city of Mableton took over code enforcement in March. Mableton mayor Michael Owens said he and his team have visited Silver Creek Apartments. 'Advised them clearly to clean up the property. Address trash and overgrowth challenges that may be there and if I need to tell them again myself this will not be tolerated,' said Owens. [SIGN UP: WSB-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter]
