1) What is your favorite Color? My favorite color is pink.

4) Do you like something sweet or salty? I usually like sweet snacks. My favorite is Reese's Peanut Butter cups. Yum!
5) If you could take a trip anywhere in the world, all expenses paid, where would you go? If I could go on a trip anywhere, I would go to Alaska. I love the outdoors. I would love to see a moose!

Labels For Education & Box Tops
The PTO is in need of a new person to take over Labels For Education collection.
If you have some time on your hands at home (hint hint) you are the perfect person for this volunteer spot! Please email peotonepto@gmail.com and we will get you going!
If you have Labels For Education...keep sending them in!!!
The #1 question people ask about Box Tops is what's the best way to send them in?
The best way is to put them in a ziplock baggie and label the baggie with your child's name and classroom teacher. That way we know what classroom should get credit for our on-going contests.
Thank you for sending them in and keep them coming!!!
