Box Tops Update

The deadline for round 1 of our Box Tops for Education contest is Monday, October 29th.  The 1st period class with the most box tops collected by Monday will be permitted to get in the lunch line first for the entire month of November.  At last count, Mr. Dziack's class held the lead, but there were several classes within striking distance. 

Why is this box top collection important?  So far, we have collected about $650 worth of box tops.  This money will be used to enhance our middle school library resources.  With new Common Core State Standards that will take effect in the 2013-14 school year, our middle school reading collection is in need of an update and upgrade.  Each box top collected gets us closer to that goal.  We thank you and your children for participating in the contest each marking period and wish each class good luck as they push toward victory.
