Campbell's Soup Labels and food Box Tops are ongoing fundraising for Hoover PTA that costs you nothing except the time it takes to cut off labels, save and give to your student's classroom teacher.  Twice a year the K-2 and 3-5 classes with the most box tops and labels earn an ice cream party for their class!

The PTA Reflections Art Program theme for 2010-11 school year is:  "TOGETHER WE CAN..."    Students of all ages reflect on what this statement means to them and then create an art work from any of the categories:  visual arts, writing (narrative or poetry), photography, music or dance.  Deadline for submissions is early in December, so start now to work on your entry.  Awards are given at Eisenhower High School in January for the local competition.  Top winners in each category go on to state and national level competitions.

The theme for the 2011-12 school year will be "Diversity means..." for those of you who like to plan ahead!
