saving pieces of ‘trash’ that are usually thrown
away .
If each student collected 5 Box Tops

raised this school year.

Each label is worth 24 cents.
Labels for Education –
Clip only the UPC code and the point value.
For V8 drinks only the CAP.
PTA redeems points for
educational merchandise

teachers.
Most of what I really need to know about how to live,
what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten.
These are the things I learned:
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life—learn some and think some and
draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work everyday some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out into the world, watch out for traffic,
hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder.
Thank you for sharing
your child with us!
