About Ms. Barrett

I have been a principal with the Huron Perth Board for about 7 years. I was 
previously a grade 7 & 8 teacher at Sacred Heart School in Wigham, for about 
16 year. I truly enjoyed my time as a teacher and still like to help out in 
classrooms when I get a chance. 
In my career as principal, I was fortunate enough to begin at St. Joseph's 
School in Kingsbridge. I was there for about 5 years, with the last year 
being a "twinned" assignment with Sacred Heart in Wingham. I then moved to 
the Wingham school and enjoyed one year there. In the spring of 2007, I was 
asked to move to St. Joseph's School in Clinton, where I am beginning my 
third year as principal. 
I have two sons, a very excitable puggle dog named Mya and a baby  
grand daughter, who recently celebrated her first birthday.All keep me very 
busy ! 
I enjoy most sports and play slow pitch in the summer and hockey in the 
winter with a great group of ladies from Ashfield Township. My golf game 
realy needs a lot of work and so I get regular lessons from my eldest son 
who is a golf professional. 
My younger son is a welding technician who programs robotic welders. I am 
very proud of both of my children and thankful that they are former students 
in the Huron Perth Catholic District School Board. 
I enjoy reading and also television shows, especially comedies. I have 
travelled a bit in the last few years and hope to do more in the near 
future. I hope you will find my webpage to be helpful and informative for 
you. Thanks for stopping by ! Ms. Barrett

Mission For Our Classes

Our mission at St. Joseph's school is to become the best citizens we can be. 
This means allowing our faith to guide our words, actions and deeds. In so 
doing, we succeed academically as well as spiritually. This year our faith 
journey is lead through awareness of What Would Jesus Do? As we work in a 
caring, catholic community, we follow the examples of the Beatitudes, 
ensuring that we "be-the-attitude" in all areas of our life. Jesus always 
put his Father's wishes and the good of others ahead of Himself, and this is 
the model of faith we work towards.
