Michael Barber is an Administrator and Educational Leader who works collaboratively and collegially throughout the stakeholder community. After spending nearly 2 decades as a classroom performing arts educator in music, theatre and the IB throughout the United States in International, Public, Charter and Independent schools, Michael knows what truly drives education, student success and community stakeholder satisfaction and it’s not all about the test scores: It’s how well you connect with the people you’re educating and to communicate your understanding and ability to support, and continuously making the student the center of all educational experiences!
Michael has landed coverage in print and broadcast outlets including NPR and NAE. In addition to his extensive educational experience, Michael is a accomplished musician, performer and presenter.
Outside of work, you can find Michael fishing, hiking and spending time with family in the outdoors whenever possible.
