Cara Cronk, 2011 Teacher of the Year: Indian Trails Middle

January 13, 2011 | FlaglerLive | Leave a Comment

Cara Cronk, Indian Trails Middle School Teacher of the Year, Flagler County, 2011
Cara Cronk

Inspired by the exceptional teachers who invested themselves in my life, I chose to pursue a career that would make a difference in the lives of others. With over fifteen years of teaching that encompassed all grade levels, I have the privilege of touching the lives of more than 1,500 students, many of whom remain in contact with me today. Born and raised in South Florida, I graduated from Florida Atlantic University in 1995. I taught in Palm Beach County for nine years before relocating to Palm Coast in 2004 with my husband, Justin, also a teacher, and two daughters, Hailey and Rebecca.

I enjoy traveling with my family, especially to destinations where moose can be observed in their natural habitat. I recently ran the FL Central Ragnar Relay, a 201-mile relay race across the state of Florida from Port Richey to Daytona Beach with eleven teammates. I am running my first half marathon in January.
