My name is Melissa Barker and I will be teaching 4th grade math, science, and social studies again this year! This is my 13th year in public education, and I have taught 4th grade, 5th grade, 1st grade, and Kindergarten. I have also served as an Assistant Principal in Frisco ISD for four years. I earned my bachelor's degree from The University of Texas and my master's degree from Sam Houston State University. I am passionate about ensuring each student has a positive and successful year full of learning and love!
I grew up in McKinney and now live here with my family! I am married to my high school sweetheart, Alex. We have a six-year-old daughter who is in 1st grade this year and a three-year-old son. We also have a goldendoodle named Charlie! When I am not teaching, I enjoy attending Texas Longhorn football games, spending time with friends/family, exercising, and trying new restaurants.
Thank you for allowing me to serve your family this year!
