The winner of PTSA Box Tops For Education Fall contest is… (drum roll, please…) Ms. Trueman’s 6th period class. Her class collected 766 Box Tops!! The entire class will receive a Dunkin Donut’s party and Ms. Truman will receive a $20 Cinemark gift card. Great job! Rounding out the Top 5 classes are:

2nd place, Ms. Cierpik – 686

Keep collecting those Box Tops. We will have another contest in the Spring. Let’s see who can rein supreme and collect even more Box Tops… will it be your child’s class?

Every single Box Top helps CMMS — Thanks to all our parents for your support!

MAKING PROGRESS…
Even though our Enjoy The City Coupon Book fundraiser is technically “over”, we still have books available to purchase if anyone is interested. We are still collecting unsold books. Books/monies are still trickling in, and that’s a good thing!! We are in the process of compiling our list of those who still have not returned books/monies. Yep, the dreaded “Obligations List”!! Parents…please, please check backpacks, lockers, bedrooms, cars, anywhere that these coupon books could be hiding. Teachers/Staff…please take a good look around your rooms.

PTSA is responsible for every book and will be penalized for those books that are not returned to the fundraising company. We asking our CMMS families for their help in this regard. Remember, honesty is the best policy!!  Thank you!!
