Box Tops Garden

Box Tops Garden

 The Box Tops Garden is another example of the Garden of Learning theme being put into action. Located in the hallway to the left of the multipurpose room, the center of the garden features a giant sunflower that keeps track of the entire school's monthly box tops totals. We'll work up the stem of the sunflower towards this year's goal of $2,600.

Smaller flowers are growing next to the sunflower as each grade level has its own flower. For every 25 box tops brought in, a petal is added to the grade level flower. Some of the flowers are already in full bloom! Monthly contests will repeat as in previous years but instead of a trophy, the class with the most box tops each month will get a special addition to the garden – a ladybug, a grasshopper, or a caterpillar perhaps - as well as a unique golden petal with the classroom's name and winning month. (Thanks goes to Mrs. Hodge for providing the bug cuties!) Winning classes will be announced on GLE Today.
