Meet the Team

  • Dawn Kamrath

    President

    Hi, I'm Dawn and this is my 2nd year as President. I started out as the popcorn lady 8 years ago and am so thankful I nervously volunteered as a new kinder parent. I've met so many amazing people this way.

    I have three fabulous girls who call me mom, aka, their personal assistant as I drive them to gymnastics and dance, every.single.day. Also, two spoiled Boston Terriers.

    I've been married for almost 13 years, I love LOVE coffee and am a champion at Candy Crush.

  • Kelli Butterfield

    Vice President

    My husband, Cole, and I have three children. Colton and Lyra are middle schoolers and Alaric is a 3rd grader at Irving. Cole grew up in Springfield and joined the Army shortly after high school. I grew up in Iowa and also joined the Army after high school. We met and married while stationed in Alaska. The military life kept us moving and eventually brought us to Eugene.

    We enjoy camping and traveling. We think it is very important to instill the love of travel within our kids. Whether it’s exploring the local State Parks or visiting one of the U.S. National Parks, we enjoy taking the time to make these memories.

    We love our Irving family and I am very honored to serve on the PTO as the Vice President for the 2023-2024 school year.

  • Sierra Hillmeyer

    Treasurer

    Hi, I'm Sierra, Treasurer for 2023-2024! It is my second year with the Irving PTO; I joined when my son was a Kindergartener, and I really didn't know what to expect. I've found this group to be friendly, dedicated and effective in raising money to support the Tiger community. I hope other parents will come and check out a meeting, or volunteer at an event! Outside of school, I am the Lead Microbiologist at PeaceHealth, and I raise quail as a hobby. My family likes spending time outdoors and traveling.

With your partnership we fund:


Majority of School Field Trips are funded by Irving PTO, in-part or in whole.

We never want a child to miss out on an opportunity to learn and explore due to financial situations.

School Events - All events such as the Back-To-School BBQ to the Monster Mash Bingo Bash!

Your partnership of time or financial partnership allows us to bring a fun and unique experience to our school and community.

School Renovation Projects!

Last year, with our communities help raised $15,000 to renovate and update the beloved Irving Elementary Library!

This is a big passion project and one we are excited to share the results of!

We will also be doing a “beautification” project spring of 2024 to the front of the school as well as the court yards
