Box Top Program

Welcome to another great year at Austin Academy. Our goal this year is to raise $450 through the Box Tops for Education program. There are 3 simple and easy ways for you to participate in this program.

1. Clip – Clip box tops from hundreds of participating General Mills products and send them to school with your child. The collection period will take place during the school dances, but children are welcome to bring them to school any day and leave them with their homeroom teacher.

2. Shop your favorite on-line stores (there are over 200 to choose from, like Barnes and Noble, Land's End, and KBToys) at the Box Tops Marketplace. First, log on to www.boxtops4education.com and sign up to be a member of the Box Tops Booster Club.  Member benefits include on-line coupons, book and movie reviews, and time saving recipes. We have been assured by General Mills that your e-mail address will not be sold to other companies. Once you have become a member, all you have to do is enter the Box Tops Marketplace and start shopping. By shopping through the marketplace, your on-line orders are flagged so that a percentage (up to 8% depending on the store) will be sent back to Austin Academy.
