A Note From Ms. Crain

Hello! My name is Vicki Crain and I have the pleasure of serving as principal at Cactus Ranch Elementary.  I have been in the education field for 19 years now, with the last 16 years being with Round Rock ISD.  During this time, I have served as a first grade teacher, Reading Recovery Teacher, Reading Recovery Teacher Leader, Director of Elementary Language Arts, Assistant Principal and Associate Principal.  I have been blessed to have worked at Cactus Ranch in some capacity since its opening in 2001.  We have seen tremendous growth in enrollment at Cactus Ranch and with that growth come unique challenges.  Even with those challenges, I couldn’t imagine a better place to work.  Cactus Ranch Elementary has the best faculty, staff, parents and students!

At Cactus Ranch we truly live by our mission statement of creating high-performing students, happy families and excited educators.

Our TAKS scores continue to exceed the state and district average and we are excited about being given an “Exemplary” rating by the Texas Education Agency in 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008!  But our strong academics only tell part of the story.  Our entire faculty is trained in our customer service philosophy.  This philosophy is noticeable from the second you walk into Cactus Ranch. Our teachers are top-notch and are sought out from within the district and beyond to share their expertise.

On a personal note, I have been married for 13 years to my husband, David and have two wonderful children, ages 10 and 7. Being a parent is my greatest achievement!  As a family we enjoy camping, hiking, boating and biking.

It is my sincere hope that you find Cactus Ranch Elementary an inviting, nurturing campus with a strong academic focus.
