It's been a community building week!

Box Tops can be found on many product packages that you may already buy, and they are easy to clip out and save. Each Box Top is worth just 10¢, but they add up so quickly. The more families that participate, the more we can earn. Our goal this year is to reach 10,000 Box Tops. Parents, grandparents, friends, and even neighbors can all help us reach that goal. When you see a package with a Box Top, please take just a few seconds to clip it out. There is a collection tote in the lobby; as long as your bag/envelope is labeled with your child’s grade, credit will be given toward the next competition which will start in January.

If you would like more information about the Box Top program, or to see a listing of participating products, visit their website at www.btfe.com. Feel free to email Sue Lajeunesse at lajeunessefamily@comcast.net. Thank you for your participation!
