Hi My name is Malissa Barron and I'm so excited to be joining the 5^th grade team.  This is my 10^th year teaching but my first year teaching 5^th grade. I taught 4th grade for two years and spent the last 7 years in Kindergarten. I am originally from western Pennsylvania  (Pittsburgh area) but have lived in North Carolina since 2011. I recently married my high school sweetheart, and I have two amazing daughters Hailey(11) and Emma (10). I am looking forward to an incredible year!
