  MINUTES & AGENDAS

The Cuyuna Range Elementary School’s Parent Teacher Organization is a 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit organization whose purpose is to support education, community relations, and parent involvement in and around CRES. We host several events where the proceeds are used to fund student field trips, classroom activities/projects, and other parent-teacher lead initiatives.

We meet on a monthly basis and welcome any member of the community, including teachers, para-professionals, support staff, parents, grandparents, or guardians to join us!

There are a variety of ways to assist with the PTO's mission:

• Attend our monthly meetings.

• Sign up to receive our email updates.

• Volunteer at one of the events.

• Attend all of our events!

• Make a financial contribution. CRES PTO is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization (EIN: 81-0737643) so all donations are tax-deductible. 

If you shop via Amazon.com, please select us as your nonprofit of choice! Through their Amazon Smile program they donate 0.5% of the price of your eligible purchases directly to CRES PTO. There's no extra cost to you and it's super easy!!

Do you have an idea that will encourage our kids to learn about something new or lead more healthy, active lifestyles? 

If parents, teachers, or community members from the Cuyuna area are in need to funding to support youth activities, the PTO may be able to help! We support parent and teacher-led initiatives that encourage healthy living or enhance the education they receive through the C-I School District. 

Examples of what we support: 

• Field trips, 

• Classroom and/or special project supplies,

• Fees for guest speakers/experts, 

• Athletic equipment (for teams, groups, clubs; not individuals)
