Win A Box Tops Ice Cream Party!

This year, there will be a separate contest for the ECC. The class that brings in the most box tops will win a prize.

"Box Tops for Education" is a free and easy way to earn REAL $$$$ for HANC.

Last year because of your participation HANC earned $900. Our goal for this year is $1,000. Let's make it happen!!!

Here's what you have to do:

Clip Box Tops

Simply collect "Box Tops for Education" symbols found on the tops of General Mills Cereal, Fruit Roll Ups, Gushers & Betty Crocker brands and hundreds of other products you use on a daily basis. Watch for bonus certificates at Kmart, Pathmark, A&P and other stores.

Please cut the symbol neatly from the box. Put them in an envelope, bag or on the collection sheet. Make sure it is labeled with your child's name and class on it. Each Box Top is worth 10¢ for HANC. Attached is a collection sheet you can print out at home.

Send Box Tops to School

Turn in your Box Tops.These can be given to their teacher or dropped in the PTA box in your building. There is a collection box in the office and in each classroom. The coordinators will gather the box tops and track them by class.3

Welcome Back!

It is our pleasure to welcome you back to school!!

Keep your eyes open for the PTA sponsored HANC calendar which should be arriving in your mailbox any day. The names of our dedicated volunteers are included as well as a listing of all of the amazing programs which PTA facilitates. In order for these programs to run successfully, we count on your dues.

Join us! Dues are only $36 for ECC and 609 parents,

and an additional $25 if you have a child at Mitchel Field.

If you are ONLY a Mitchel Field parent, the dues are $36.

Feel free to submit your dues in whichever way is easiest for you: Lice check, with your lunch order, or you can simply remove the envelope found within your calendar and mail it or drop it in the PTA box.

We would like to wish the entire HANC family a Happy and Healthy New Year.

Warmly,

The Superette

Everything was wonderful at the Superette last night. Kikki Rikki's and cookbooks sold like mad. And the food was yum! Thanks to Anita Grossman for all her hard work this year. Good luck to Kari and Nancy!

Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

The cookbook has been selling like hotcakes! Thanks again to Suzi Aryeh for having the vision to make it all come together.

Books are still available, but we are starting to run low because lots of folks have been buying multiple copies.

To get yours, contact Suzi Aryeh.
