Mrs. Barbara Johnson

Hi Parents,

I am Barbara Johnson, and you may know me as your child’s librarian, but there is a lot more that I do for the school.

First off, I am a Bishop Ryan Catholic School graduate, as are both of my boys. (Fun Fact:  My oldest sister started at Bishop Ryan in 1968 and we have had a family member enrolled every year since then, and since our youngest family member is a kindergartener, I am happy to say the legacy should continue for awhile.)

I have a bachelor’s degree in Communication Disorders from Minot State University.  Additionally, I have a master’s degree in Early Childhood Special Education and 30 years of teaching experience. I help both students and teachers with all the various learning styles to ensure every student is successful. I am also a published author and public speaker, so of course I love books, and I hope that my enthusiasm is for reading is far more contagious than this awful virus!

Read together or read alone, but please be reading! (Or even write your own stories.)

Sincerely,
Barbara Johnson
