Once again, welcome back and I hope everyone is having a great first week back at Sheckler Elementary School. Just a reminder, school will be closed on Aug. 29 and Sept. 1 for the Labor Day holiday. Regularly scheduled classes will resume Sept. 2.

***

I hope everyone has been continuing to collect those Box Tops for Education over the summer to help Sheckler turn trash in to cash for our school. Box Tops can be found on many products, including General Mills cereals, Betty Crocker baking products and bakeware, a variety of everyday household supplies including Ziploc brand, a variety of frozen foods and much more. Each Box Top is worth 10 cents and by collecting schoolwide, the amount adds up quickly.

All profits brought in are used to help fund special events, activities and field trips for the students throughout the school year. Box Tops may be sent in with your child and given to his or her teacher.

Stay tuned for upcoming submission dates and deadlines as well as any grade-level contests they may be held with each submission.

Please return any dental or physical forms that may be due for your child as soon as possible.
