The statewide award annually recognizes a “practicing Public Relations professional in a public school, district, educational agency, service center or intermediate unit.” Baribeau said, “It is a true honor to be nominated by Superintendent Cain and to have the support and endorsement of a group of professional communicators of the caliber of the MSPRA membership.” Baribeau has been a communication professional for more than 20 years, starting her career as a television producer/writer in Los Angeles. Her communications colleague and fellow MSPRA Board member, Garth Kriewall, who is also a local resident, presented her with the award.
