Community Coffee Labels: |
| Once again the library will collect Community Coffee labels throughout the year. The library will receive 10 cents for each label turned in. This will help us to buy new books and other materials for the students and teachers to enjoy. We will continue with the program that we had last year. Students will turn in the labels to their first block teachers. The teachers will then turn the labels into the library. We will keep a tally of the labels turned in. Hopefully each Monday a label standings will be announced so that the classes can see who is in the lead. At the end of each grading period we will announce a winner of a donut party. Thanks to all of you who turned in labels last year. We were able to collect over $250.00 from Community Coffee. Please keep up the good work. |
