Box Tops
Hello Families!
This is just a little note to let you know that our school collects Box Tops and we would LOVE it if you could collect them. Students can turn them in on Fridays for prizes.
You can find them on lots of packages, everything from school supplies to taco shells. Each regular Box Top clipping is worth 10 cents, and those can add up quickly when we all turn them in.
Mrs. Ostler
