During a meeting of Florida’s Cabinet on Tuesday, Gov. Rick Scott presented his Governor’s Shine Awards to four outstanding educators, including Northview High School teacher Anna Barry.

Barry was named the Escambia County Teacher of the Year. She teaches world history and honors world history at Northview.  Barry is a product of the Escambia County School systems, from kindergarten at Bratt Elementary School, to Ernest Ward Middle School through gradation from Northview in 2000.

Barry received a bachelor of science degree in health education and went on to become professionally certified in several areas. She has taught for 10 years — two years at Ernest Ward and eight years at Northview. She also works together with other teachers to improve the educational experience of students.
