Thank you to all those who have been bringing in the "Box Tops for Education" coupons you have been collecting for our school. Every dime counts, so please bring them in, even if you just have a few. 

There is a special collections box, in the shape of a schoolhouse, in the corridor, opposite the Main Office. Please place the properly cut Box Tops in a sealed envelope or baggie with your child's name and class clearly written outside. The class that collects the most Box Tops by the end of February 2015 will be in store for a special class celebration!

Here are some examples of products that participate in Box Tops: Hefty products, Kleenex, Mott's, Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, Progresso, Yoplait, and assorted cereal brands. Keep an eye out for Box Tops on other products as well.

 Let's work together to meet our goal of $800 for this year! Together, we can do it!
