This is primarily an at home activity. Box Tops are collected from the box in the school lobby, trimmed, sorted and grouped together and sent to the manufacturers' center for redemption. Box Tops earn the school cash.

Crossing Guard
To help ensure the safety of all children, several parents volunteer as crossing guards at the exit of the school parking lot before and after school. Substitutes are also needed as the volunteers sometimes are unable to fill their shift. This is a duty which takes only 15-20 minutes a day.
