Box Tops
You have less than a month left to turn in box tops for a chance to win $20 CASH, a $10 McDonalds gift card or an ice cream treat from the MJH cafeteria. And considering we've only had 2 (yes, 2!) students so far turn in box tops, your chance of winning a prize at this point is guaranteed! So c'mon and start clipping! Put the box tops in a clear plastic baggie with the student's name on the front and turn it in to the front office by February 6th. For a complete list of rules regarding prize eligibility, see the flyer bins located in and near the front office.
