Box Tops: With our community support our PTA has raised $1,452.41 so far with Box Tops. Every Box Top counts so please continue your support and send Box Tops to school with your child.
You can help make a difference for our school by saving and turning in “Box Tops.” Simply clip the “Box Top for Education” symbol of many of your grocery items and send them in to your child’s teacher. “Box Tops” can be found on items such as: Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, Hamburger Helper, Kleenex, Nestle, Cheerios, Chex, Ziploc, Hefty, Natural Valley, etc. Please assist our volunteers by submitting box tops that have been wiped free of debris and trimmed to size.
Three times throughout the year there will be a class incentive for the class bringing in the most “Box Tops.” If you would like more information on how to support our school, please contact Megan at megan@lampingelementary.com.
