Personal Mission Statement: Live, love, laugh, leave a legacy. - Dr. Stephen R. Covey

 I graduated from Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and from UNC Greensboro with a Master's Degree and Education Specialist Degree in School Counseling.  I have worked in Alexander County Schools since 2006 and am so glad I found my home here at Ellendale!

I live in a house of boys with my husband and two sons!  We love camping, golf cart rides and all things boy!

At Ellendale I get to have fun with my "Specials" team every day!  I love working with the students, teachers, and families of Ellendale!  

You can always reach me at school by phone (828) 632-4866, email ambarnes@alexander.k12.nc.us or Bloomz message.
