Every school has a crossing guard, but at one North Texas elementary campus, she’s more than an employee – she’s family.
Mornings are busy at Moss Haven Elementary in Richardson, but one thing never changes: Ms. Crawford.
“Everybody loves her. She’s here every single day,” said Adam Tharp, a Moss Haven parent who works at Lake Highlands Automotives.
“Just here to make a smile on everyone’s faces as we cross the street,” said Luke Wagner, president of the Moss Haven Elementary Dad’s Club.
“She’s out here every morning, every afternoon. She probably knows more parents on a first‑name basis than most people,” added Marcus Walther, another member of the Dad’s Club.
A community that shows up
The Dad’s Club meets regularly to support teachers, staff and students.
“We’re a group of dads who signed up to come together to better the environment here at Moss Haven Elementary,” Wagner said. “Most mornings we get about six to eight dads.”
