My name is Michelle Crain and I am so happy to be your child's third grade teacher!
This is my seventh year at Forest Trail and I have loved being a part of such an amazing community and school family. My husband and I are originally from the Houston area but we moved to Austin in 2012.
In 2013, I took on a new challenge and was invited to join PTEP (Partner for Teacher Excellence Program). This amazing EEF supported program has partnered with Texas State University to help Eanes teachers earn their Master's Degree. I graduated from Texas State with my Master's in Elementary Education in Spring of 2015.
