Did You Know?

Box Tops are a great way to bring in money to our PTO. We raise a few thousand dollars each year. Invite grandparents and neighbors to clip their Box Tops as well!

We collect Box Tops every Friday in your child's classroom! When they turn in 25 Box Tops (in a baggie or attached to a sheet), they get a little prize from the treasure box. When the class collectively brings in 500 Box Tops, they all get a fun light saber!
