Today is National PTO (Parent-Teacher Organization) Day, making it the perfect opportunity to give a huge thank you to C-REST (Cobleskille-Richmondville Education Support Team), for everything they do for our students and staff throughout the year!

C-REST sponsors and provides volunteers for so many activities and special events throughout the school year, including assemblies, book fairs, PARP, holiday shops, spelling bees, field days, and so much more.

Behind each of these events are volunteers who give their time to plan, organize, and come into our schools to help make these experiences special for our students. Their support helps our students and staff feel appreciated, celebrated, and supported all year long.

C-REST also goes above and beyond to support our staff. During Teacher Appreciation Week, C-REST provides a delicious lunch for all of our staff members. Planning and organizing an event like that for our entire staff is no small feat, and it is just one of the many ways C-REST shows its appreciation for our teachers and staff.

Their hard work and generosity do not go unnoticed. We are especially grateful to the C-REST officers who help lead the organization and coordinate the many events and activities throughout the year:
President: Robin Caiazzo
Vice President: Amber Gridley
Treasurer: Alicia Watson
Secretary: Michele Goot

Thank you to all of the C-REST volunteers for the time, energy, and care you put into making these experiences possible. We are so grateful for the meaningful difference you’ve all made for all of our students and staff.

Please join us in thanking C-REST for everything they do—not just today, but every day!

Below are just some of the thank-you notes and gifts that our students made for C-REST.
