My name is Charlotte Barton. I have been blessed to teach 1st graders at Sunrise for almost 20 years. My husband and I have 2 daughters and a son-in-law. Both of our daughters are Sunrise graduates. I enjoy reading, gardening, and spending time with my family. Check back throughout the year for pictures of what we are learning in 1st grade!
