CREST (Cobleskill-Richmondville Education Support Team)

CREST (Cobleskill-Richmondville Education Support Team) is a non-profit parent organization that serves students K-12. Our mission is to foster a closer relationship between home and school that enhances educational opportunities for our elementary students.

We sponsor and provide volunteers for many activities and special events throughout the year including assemblies, book fairs, PARP, holiday shops, spelling bees (4th and 5th grade), field days, Winter Carnival and more.

To fund these activities and special events, we typically host one large fundraiser each year and are always looking for volunteers to help with fundraising and events.


Children and adults enjoy an outdoor event, with colorful treats and activities.

  • For the 2025-26 school year,  our meetings will be held on the third Thursday of each month at 5:30 p.m. in the Ryder Elementary library. Childcare is available during the meeting. Below is the list of meeting dates:
