Box Tops Tropical Beach Party!
May Box Tops Theme Sheet - Click here
Our last contest of the year is here! Please send in all your Box Tops between April 29 and May 20th. The class that sends in the most will win a Tropical Beach Party! You can glue them to collection sheets or send them in baggies, just make sure you get them in fast.
Our Labels for Education UPC’s have been shipped and we added 5,992 points to our balance. We will be able to use these points to order more supplies for our classes. I collect these year round so please keep sending them in.
Thank you for all you do to make our collection programs a success!
