Elrod
is participating in General Mills' Box Tops for Education program.
General Mills pays the PTA $.10 for each box top label returned.
Our goal this year is to raise $700 to buy a set of Junior Great
Books. To make things exciting, we are hosting a school-wide contest.
Classes will receive prizes for returning as few as 25 labels -
about 1 per student! Box tops labels can be found on over 330 General
Mills and Betty Crocker products.

Labels
for Education is an easy, fun way to help our school get free
educational merchandise, including computers, sports equipment and
musical instruments. Collect eligible labels, and send them to school
with your child. Elrod's PTA will redeem the labels for free merchandise.
