Meet this week’s teacher: Ms. Barbaza! She is a 6th/7th grade ELA teacher at AVS.
If Ms. Barbaza could travel anywhere in the world, she’d visit Italy. Unsurprisingly, ELA was her favorite subject when she was a student. If you spot Ms. Barbaza outside of school, you might find her practicing yoga, reading, or baking.
Ms. Barbaza chose to work at AVS because she loves the small community and being able to work closely with students even though they aren't in the same room.
Thanks Ms. Barbaza for all you do at AVS! Tune in next Monday to meet the next AVS team member!
