Membership is open to all teachers, staff and Craik families!  Become a valued member of the Craik Team!  Membership is simply a way to show your support.  If we have 100% of Craik families, teachers and staff join the PTO, we would be able to focus more time and effort on school activities and less time on fundraisers.  At $10 per family membership, we could easily meet out goal this year.  With an extra donation and successful support of planned passive and event fundraising, we will be able to help provide some "Wish List" items to Craik Elementary.
