Barber Families,

My name is Jeff Granger, and it is my privilege to serve as the principal of Shirley A. Barber Elementary School. I was raised in small town Celina, Ohio and began my teaching career in South Bend, Indiana prior to moving to Las Vegas in 2005. I have worked in the Clark County School District for over 15 years and this is my 7th year as an administrator, the last two years as the Assistant Principal at Barber Elementary. As an educator, I have been a fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth grade teacher, math/science instructional coach, dean, and assistant principal. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education and Master’s Degrees in Educational Leadership.

My wife is a former teacher who now stays at home with our five wonderful children, Adalee (12), Charlotte (9), Eliana (8), Justin (6), and Rebecca (2). We love spending time together as a family.  My children enjoy reading and playing games together.  Some of my favorite things to do are play family games, play golf, and cheer on The Ohio State Buckeyes and Chicago Bears.

My philosophy is that our Barber children are our first priority, and I take pride in doing my very best to ensure that each and every student receives the very best education possible to help them become successful citizens and confidently follow their dreams. We will work together to provide differentiated learning experiences that engage and challenge each student.

Being the principal of Barber Elementary School is a responsibility I am honored to have. I look forward to continuing the successes at Barber by working hard, openly communicating with you, supporting collaboration between the school and home, and living out our motto of Work Hard, Be Kind, and Have Fun!  Through a close partnership with staff, parents, and our community, I am confident that we will make our school a place where our students continue to learn and grow academically and socially.  I am dedicated to providing any support needed to provide the best education for our students.

Thank you in advance for your support and commitment to our children’s future and the success of our community. If you should have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me through email at , or phone at 702-799-5915. I am looking forward to another great year and serving as your principal!

Sincerely,

Jeff Granger
