BOX TOPS! Bring 'em in NOW!
It's time to gather all those box tops you've been saving and turn them in to the Box Top drawer, which is located in the school lobby (in the top drawer next to the bookcase and water fountain). The Spring deadline is Tuesday, February 26. If you are new to the community, Box Tops for Education offers FREE money to our school just for sending in the small pink rectangles found on products you probably use every day.
The process is simple-- clip pink Box Top labels from products (listing on website http://www.boxtops4education.com/Image.aspx?id=3878 ), bag and place them in the collection drawer in the school's front lobby. We will count them and send them into General Mills. Each Box Top is worth 10 cents. This really adds up if we all collect and submit them! Brackett uses this money for field trips and enrichment, so start clipping today!
