Mrs. Samantha Barnes

Welcome Friends!

My name is Samantha Barnes and I am one of the Exceptional Children's teacher at Meadow. This will be my 7th year teaching in EC. I grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (Go Steelers!) and attended Slippery Rock University for my bachelors degree. I moved to North Carolina and began my teaching career at Meadow and it has been a great adventure!

I look forward to this upcoming school year and the new adventures we will create together!
