I was wondering what everyone thought about the Box Tops reward program?
I loved how last year they gave the skateing,bowling,icee passes for turning them in.My kids loved that too, and were more enthusiastic about turning them in, but they still do turn them in(not as enthusiastic though).Wondering if anyone has anything to comment on this situation.

Hi sdrmmom3,
I can imagine that the kids loved getting rewarded for turning in Box Tops for Education. Did your school tell you why they stopped? If the PTO was paying for the prizes, it probably got prohibitive. If they were donated by local businesses, it sounds like the donations stopped.
Our school has only had contests among the classrooms to see who could send in the most.
Perhaps if you ask at the next PTO meeting, you'll learn what happened and you can find out what you can do. Perhaps visiting local businesses and asking for donations for the prizes.
Good luck!78957
