Barbara graduated from St. Mary's College in Dodge City Kansas with a major in Religious Studies and a minor in History, and English.

This is Barbara's 22nd year teaching in Catholic Schools. Barbara would like to add, "I teach in a Catholic School because I believe in what Catholic Schools stand for.; wisdom, self reliance, responsibility, imagination, responsibility, empathy, integrity, generosity, and love of God. By teaching in Catholic schools I have fulfilled a lifelong dream of service to my faith and to my country."
