  2. Students may bring pillows, sleeping bags and blankets. 
  3. Students who would like to participate in the Eagle Library Supporter Program - please bring $10 to be the first to read a new book and have your name placed on the bookplate of the book. 
  4. Parents - if you can volunteer to help pop popcorn, hand out popcorn, or read in classes, please email our library media specialist, Ms. Falkenberg, at afalkenberg@amanaacademy.org.
  5. This event is for Elementary students only.

AND THE WINNER OF THE BOX TOPS CONTEST IS....

Box Tops LogoMs. Atkinson's Kindergarten class with 1080 Box Tops! They have won the Grand Prize of a Box Tops classroom party! Runners up are:

 

2nd Place: Ms. Treviso (6th grade) with 736 Box Tops

3rd Place: Ms. Combs (1st grade) and Ms. Kreutzer (3rd grade) tied with 611 Box Tops

 

Congratulations to all classes for participating! Thanks to the dedication of our students and their families, Amana has earned $815 so far this year just from collecting Box Tops. Money earned from Box Tops funds PIE activities at the school, including a new micro-grant program for teachers--stay tuned for more information later this fall!

 

In the meantime, please continue to send in Box Tops to your classroom. Any Box Tops turned in between now and the Spring Box Tops contest will be counted toward the Spring Box Tops contest totals. Sending Box Tops in early ensures they don't expire before we are able to send them in. Details on the Spring Box Tops contest will be announced after the holidays!

 

For more information, please contact Rose Louis at jamilapeek@yahoo.com.
