Lisa can often be found trimming the box tops getting them ready to mail, along with checking the expiration dates. This is a time consuming, patience testing endeavor. It is fair to say:
YOU ROCK MRS. VANEK and THANK YOU!
Reminder:
Box Tops due date: Friday, October 14th. Please turn in all box tops to your child's classroom by Friday morning. Please remember to trim all box tops before sending them to school. Also, do not send expired box tops. Thank you!
