Mr. Cross

My name is Michael Cross and this year will mark my 28th year in education.  It will be my eleventh year teaching here in Douglas County at New Manchester Elementary School.

I was born and raised in Utica, New York.  After high school graduation, I attended Florida A&M University where I received both my bachelors and master’s degrees.  Additionally, I later earned an Educational Specialist’s degree from the University of Georgia.

I love teaching and I truly believe that education has the power to change and enhance lives. When I am not at school, I enjoy spending time with my beautiful wife Tracey, my two sons, Michael and Miles, and my Cocker Spaniel Cocoa.
