Getting to Know Ms.Barnick
pet













I have taught at Chelsea Heights School for 6 years! I am a graduate of the College of St. Thomas.
I began my teaching career in Crookston, MN teaching 2nd & 1st grades. I lived in Crookston for
3 years. I moved back to the Roseville area and taught 1st grade at St. Rose of Lima School for 8 yrs.
I also was a licensed home Daycare Provider for 10 years while home with our 4 children. This
was a fun way to keep working with children and be able to be a stay at home mom!! However, I
kept my teaching license current, knowing I would return to teaching one day! I have taken many
courses through Hamline University and recently obtained a PrePrimary Teaching Certificate
from the College of St. Catherine - now I am licensed to teach PrePrimary through Grade 6.
I subbed in Roseville and St. Paul Schools before teaching Kindergarten at Chelsea Heights
and also had the opportunity to work for the University of Minnesota on the Reading First
Program - which was a very interesting position.

My husband and I live in Roseville with our 4 children. They keep us very busy along with
3 dogs and a cat! Our oldest daughter, Maggie, is a sophomore at The College of St. Scholastica,
Patrick is a Senior at Roseville Area High School, Johanna is a sophomore at Roseville Area
High School and Jack is an 8th grader at Roseville Middle School. They all are active in a
variety of sports and keep us constantly on our toes!

My favorite things to do are baking and reading. I enjoy spending the summer months at home
with our kids. I love to be outside and work in my gardens too. Also, taking care of all those
pets keeps me active!
