About Mrs. Barnes

I am so blessed to teach at the best school with the best kiddos and families! We are a true family and I wouldn't have it any other way!

My best friend and I have been married for 30 years and have four incredible children who bring more joy to our lives than we could ever deserve. We have three sons and one daughter: Josh is teaching 3rd grade at Monaview Elementary School, Matt is Project Manager, Gracie lives in Louisiana, works at Beads by the Dozen, and is a WGU student studying special education, and Luke is a Freshman at Toccoa Falls College studying TESOL. I believe in lifelong learning and that every person has a unique gift that only he/she can accomplish! I am excited to be a part of your child’s academic journey and cannot wait to see all that each child will accomplish this year!

In our spare time, my family and I enjoy camping, reading, gardening, DIY projects, and spending time together. We can spend hours on end sitting around the table talking and laughing. These are some of my favorite times/memories.
