Box Tops is changing to fit today's families. The new and improved Box Tops mobile app uses state-of-the-art technology to scan your store receipt, find participating products and instantly add Box Tops to your school's earnings online. Eventually the Box Tops program will become digital-only. Participating brands are starting to change their packaging from a traditional Box Tops clip to the new Box Top label.
If you see this label, use the new Box Tops app to scan your receipt. Box Tops are still worth 10¢ each for your school. The app will find participating products purchased at any store and instantly add cash to your school's earnings online.

Happy New Year! We look forward to seeing students tomorrow at Washington Elementary! Second semester begins tomorrow! See you then!
School resumes January 9th for students.
Box Tops for Education has made some big changes this past year: they are going digital!
Until the Traditional Box Tops clips are fully phased out, you can still clip and send them to school, but eventually the Box Tops program will become digital-only. Participating brands are starting to change their packaging from a traditional Box Tops clip to the new Box Top label that will use the Box Tops mobile app.
Please download the app, follow the steps on the app to sign up, and begin scanning your receipts: earning money for our school.
