Box Tops Pod Race Update

The race is on! In the lead is the Blue Pod with 1285. Following close behind is the Green Pod with 952. The Yellow Pod is off to a slow start but is sure to gain momentum with almost 200 so far. The final collection for Race One of the series is next week! Be sure to send all your Box Tops and Labels for Education to school with your student.

Remember each Box Top is worth 10 cents! With over 550 students, 10 box tops per students earns us $550! Look for them on all your purchases: kleenex, ziploc, progresso soup, general mills cereal and so much more!
