Box Tops Competition Heats Up

Go Red Sox! It’s almost unbelieveable to be doing this after such a rough season last year…

And speaking of COMPETITION, we’ve got a serious competition warming up within the school. It’s all about the Box Tops.

Right now the standings look like this:Perennial champ Mrs Salas is ahead with 253 Box Tops, Mrs Curtin not far behind at 189, and Mrs Walsh a close third at 171. From there, it’s neck and neck all the way to the finish – Boss, Bloom, Griffith, Hourin, Corwin, Kelley, and Regan.

The World Series is exciting, sure, but it pales in comparison to the annual Squantum BoxTops for Education Classroom Contest - remember the winners get a slushie party!!

And remember the Meadow Farms Fundraiser catalogs are due the 28th!!

Revamped PTO website!

A lot of new updates on the site recently.

Squantum Report: Outdoor Classroom Edition

You don’t get that many chances to get your name put directly on a structure that you can show your children in 5, 10, 25 or even 50 years.

You can do this by supporting our outdoor classroom project by buying a brick and become a permanent friend of Squantum Elementary School !

Details of the project and how you can help are in the this PDF document: outdoorextrajuly2013.

Thanks for your support!

Box Tops Winners Announced

The winning classrooms in Box Tops are Mrs. Salas and Mrs. Painters classrooms!

Huge Congratulations to them and the rest of the teacher and of course a huge thank you to Maura Mayo for spearheading this project. The school wouldn’t be where it is without the help of a large base of friendly volunteers.

Oh, and remember to keep clipping those box tops over the summer, it is a simple way to give back to the school that really adds up! Check out the BoxTops Facebook page here!
