Calling all TPCA families to win!

 

Flagstaff Academy has collected more Box Tops than we have! At last count, they have 21,181 and we have 14,438.  We are comparing again soon so check the Howl for updated numbers.

 

NEW CHALLENGE:

Help your child's homeroom teacher win a $50 spa gift certificate and turn in those Box Tops.

 

Collect and turn in your Box Tops for Education to support TPCA.  Contact your friends, families and coworkers to see if they will help you collect.  The school that collects the most Box Tops by May 4th will get a treat from the opposing school.

 

 

 

 

Also, over 175 retailers give eBoxTops to your school when you shop online. Earn even more points for TPCA. To learn more, click here:

All Box Tops turned in count towards both contests.

To win a popcorn party for your class, turn in Box Tops by February 18th.
