Keep saving your Boxtops and Campbell's Soup labels!!  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!  There is also a table outside the office with a bin and PTA schoolhouse mailbox where you can put yours at anytime.  The last collection date is coming up at the end of April!!
