Welcome to Barksdale and Kindergarten! My name is Kristen Jones and this will be my 6th year teaching. This will be my first year at Barksdale as I am relocating here to Clarksville! I received my bachelor degree in Elementary Education from Western Kentucky University and my masters degree from the University of the Cumberlands in Teacher Leader and English as a Second Language. My husband and I will be celebrating our 6th anniversary this year. My husband is a Jazz Pianist and loves all things music. We have two dogs, Kona and Merle. I am so excited to be joining the Bengal family and having a fantastic year with your children!
