Committee Updates
Our philosophy on subsidizing student activity-related expenditures:
In response to the state’s 4% cap (now it's 2%) our organization had to step up to fill the gap and provide funding for a majority of the activities that our children participate in – assemblies, author visits and some field trips -- as well as specific technology such as smart boards to assist teachers. We hope to continue to benefit our students by fundraising to support activities that enrich their elementary school experience.
BOX TOPS for Education
$AVE YOUR BOX TOPS
Byrd raised $1,000 last year just by collecting the 10¢ Box Tops coupons donated by parents and students. Each classroom has a Box Tops container set up... and so does the Byrd main office.
The 10¢ Box Tops coupons can be found on hundreds of familiar products from General Mills, as well as on Ziploc and Kleenex products, too.
