In January, the teachers at Foothills Elementary were told they each get to spend $10 (per teacher) on whatever they chose for their class to spend the remaining Box Top money from 2009-10. Your children get the reward from all your hard work cutting and collecting Box Tops! As the teachers spend the remaining money we will report to you what each teacher purchases for their classroom.
