Ms. Barreto

4th Grade Regular Program Teacher

Ms. Barreto's childhood dream of becoming a teacher started in 2nd grade. She graduated from Texas Wesleyan University with a focus on Early Childhood Education. She is currently pursuing my master’s degree in School Counseling through Texas A&M University. She started working for Manuel Jara in 2011. She has taught grades 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th. She wants to inspire her students to become something special at a young age, and that they have a desire to learn and reach their personal goals. She hopes that her class loves school just as much as she does!
