Our Jr High and High School Fine Arts teachers span from one of our longest veterans to two of our newest.



Our Crane Elementary Staff looks forward to seeing all of our students and parents at Open House, 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM tonight (8/14/25)!

If you have a child attending our 3-year-old program this year, you will need to stop by and visit with Ms. Kelsey at our open house THIS Thursday (8/14)! She will be set up outside of Mrs. Lawson's classroom with all the information you will need for our Parents as Teachers program. Here you can sign up for our PAT program and get valuable information for the upcoming year. If you are unable to attend open house, please look for information coming home with your student during our first week.
