🎓✨ A Tradition of Names and Memories ✨🎓
Each year, 5th grade teacher Mr. Bendson creates a special word cloud made up of the names of every student in his class. He started this thoughtful tradition with the Class of 2024 —when that class was in 5th grade.🧑🏫📚 The tradition has continued.
What an amazing way to honor and remember each group of students. It’s not just a cloud of names — it’s a snapshot of a classroom family. 💙

RangerMade student, Wyatt Juracek, worked closely with the Cuyuna Iron Range Heritage Network on creating a grave marker for all those who were killed in the Milford Mine Disaster. Pictured (L-R): Tim Leonard- President, Wyatt Juracek, Roxanne Aulie- Secretary and Tim Lindberg. Thank you, Mr. Lindberg, for donating the rods/stakes to attach to the grave markers.
2024 marked the 100th anniversary of the disaster. Roxanne is a descendant of one of the miners killed in the disaster. This was near and dear to her heart and feels this is another step in having the miners honored!

Mid Minnesota Federal Credit Union teamed up with local Business Professionals to provide a "reality check" with our juniors. The event called "Mad City Money" gave each student a future identity complete with an occupation, salary, kids, and perhaps some debt. Students then made decisions about housing, transportation, food, clothing, child care, entertainment, and more. It's just like being an adult!
Congratulations to our Rangers Athletes of the Week, Jairus Millsop and Maria Ringhand! Your hard work doesn't go unnoticed. Keep it up!! #gocigo #rangernation #AOTW
This year, for PBIS, CRES students worked towards a whole school positive incentive by demonstrating good behavior choices. Students received Paw Pride slips and filled up the Paw Pride Slip container to earn the Ninja Course. 🐱👤CLEF sponsored the event and provided every student with t-shirts to celebrate how awesome our students and staff really are! 🤗
⭐Congratulations to Taytum Tisdel and Taylor Smith, who were recognized at Sourcewell's Students of Character banquet.

🚴♂️ Mr. Lang has taken our Phy. Ed. biking unit to the next level! For the past few years, students have enjoyed biking on school grounds and along the CRES trail. This year, he expanded the adventure for our 5th and 6th graders by taking them off-campus to explore the scenic, paved State trails. What an awesome way to stay active and enjoy the outdoors! 🌳🚲
