On the recordSeptember 4, 2025
Mrs. Kassie Barber, a dedicated teacher at Jamesville Elementary School in Martin County, North Carolina, has worked up the ranks. She has served as a substitute teacher, teacher assistant, and schoolbus driver. Now this school year opening marks her first full year as a third grade teacher. Pursuing her lifelong dream, she returned to college and now follows in her mother's footsteps. Mrs. Barber's passion for her students and for education shines brightly, making her a remarkable example in eastern North Carolina as an emerging school leader. Her mother, Judy, and Memaw instilled in her a deep love for working with children. As her mother now looks over her in Room 115 from above, I wish Mrs. Barber and JES a great school year. Much like her special graduation, may her life continue to grow brighter with each passing day with her students.
