Her passion for helping students achieve their maximum potential is what lead her to pursue a career in Early Childhood, as well as, elementary education. Mrs. Barnes served worked in public education for more than 16 years. She has served in as a special education paraprofessional, Special Education Teacher, Varsity Volleyball and Track Coach, Special Education Department Chair and a most recently as a Principal.

Leading Converse Christian School is not just a job, it is a calling and one that she is committed to doing with excellence to the Glory of God.
