Are you Turning
in your Box Tops For Education?
Did you know that you
can be helping your child's classroom pay for their field trips, and
the school present other programs just from clipping "Box Tops for
Education"? Well lets get started Kingsborough families! For
every "Box Top" clipped and turned in the school will get
reimbursed 10 cents! After a while they all add up to
hundreds of dollars a year. This money which goes to the
student council, will be partially turned over to help your students
class pay for bussing for field trips, or other activities that the
teachers see fit. Help support the Kingsborough cause, and
keep on clipping those little rectangles off your boxes and have
your students bring them in!
