Dear Barrington 220 Community,

Shortly after I introduced my new video series, All in 220, I received a touching message from a grandparent in this district. The message was about Kristen Devine, a special education teacher at North Barrington Elementary School. 

The grandparent, whose family has experienced some tough times, has grandchildren who have had Mrs. Devine as their teacher. The grandparent explained numerous ways in which Mrs. Devine exhibited thoughtful support and compassionate assistance to help the students.

I want to thank Mrs. Devine for always going above and beyond to support her students. You can click here to read more about her journey in education. 

In addition, please watch the video below which shows when Mrs. Devine found out that she is the recipient of the All in 220 award, representing the Village of North Barrington!
