Michelle Graham Named 2025 District Educator of the Year
Michelle Graham has 23 years of teaching experience making a lasting impact through her strong relationships with students, staff and families. Her intentional, student-centered instruction; her collaborative spirit and unwavering support; and her infectious sense of humor are what make her an exceptional teacher. Ms. Graham is the person who sees opportunities where others see challenges. She shows compassion and empathy but is not afraid to be direct and honest. She holds herself and others to high expectations but doesn't take herself too seriously.
Michelle’s contributions to Barton Creek and Eanes ISD are immeasurable, and her impact on the lives of her students is truly profound. Congratulations once again to the Eanes ISD District Educator of the Year, Michelle Graham.
