Crosby-Ironton School District

This November, our district will ask voters to consider an operating levy referendum. If approved, the Ranger Nation Strong Foundation plan would provide $1.5 million annually for ten years to stabilize the budget and protect quality education for our students.

Visit RangerNationStrongFoundation.org for more information.

Podcast #4 is now available! Superintendent Aulie takes some time to speak with new CRES Principal, Mr. Dan Fischer.
