Welcome to Crawford's ALE Classroom at Garner Middle School! 

This is my fifth year teaching ALE at Garner Middle School. I am excited for the 2022-2023 school year.

I attended Texas State University and received a Bachelor of Exercise Sports Science with a minor in Health and Wellness Promotions. I earned my Master's degree at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. I have also completed post-graduate work at Angelo State University in Curriculum and Instruction and the University of Texas San Antonio in Communications. 

I was a pastor for eight years, prior to teaching Special Education. During my professional career, I have worked with students from elementary age to college age. Working with special-needs students has been my greatest joy.

I love endurance and adventure sports, especially mountain bike racing. Hiking and trail running with my wife and two small boys are also favorite pastimes.
