Katie Barton is from Poway, CA and graduated from Poway High School. She then went on to Lewis Clark State to further her education and play collegiate volleyball. Katie returned to San Diego and finished her BA in Liberal Studies at California State University San Marcos as well as receiving her teaching credential. 

Katie coaches girls volleyball for Poway High School as well as San Diego Volleyball Club. Katie enjoys giving back to the programs that helped her and loves continuing to be involved in the sport! 

When Katie is not teaching or coaching, she enjoys being at the beach, mountains or anywhere outdoors. She enjoys staying active and anything hands on like building vans, chicken coops, gardens, you name it! 

Since Kaite loves being active and hands on, her classroom is set up in a similar way! Katie’s classroom has a welcoming environment that fosters independent learners who enjoy learning in a variety of ways through building, writing, technology, and the arts and sciences.
