Fundraising - working together to help our kids!

Join Us as We Decide How to Help Belshaw
Please come to our next PTO meeting, as we discuss how to help Belshaw. With the District’s financial crisis, we need to carefully choose how we can best help our students and staff.  We have some suggestions on fund raising preferences, activity ideas, and community events.

We meet on the second Monday of each month in the Belshaw Library at 7:00pm.
Come, share your ideas and enjoy a yummy snack!

Looking for some easy ways to help?
We've got lots of suggestions!

Box Tops for Education

Our new Box Tops for Education coordinator is Marilyn DeMoss. Let's give her lots of work by turning in your Box Tops!

Just clip Box Tops from hundreds of your favorite General Mills products and send them in to your child’s classroom.  Each Box Top is worth 10¢.  Marilyn will then count them, send them in, and soon after, we will receive a check!

To learn about all the eligible products, go to their site by clicking HERE.
