    Welcome to Miss. Barros' Preschool Class!

    Room B209

    Hello Families! I am so excited about this school year and to be your child's teacher! 

    I am looking forward to watching all of my students grow and learn this year and witnessing them do amazing things throughout the year. There are so many adventures to come throughout this school year- I cannot wait! I am so happy to be a part of your child's life and their learning journey.
