Snowballs of Kindness



Dear Cloverdale Elementary Parents,


I am excited to start the Box Tops Snowballs of Kindness again this year! I think that the kids are excited too just by the response I have received in two weeks, 2,800 Box Tops turned in already!


I think that the fun of this contest is throwing the Snowballs of Kindness. It is great to look for the good in others and letting them know that you noticed! Please encourage your kids to look for the good in people and also to be nice to those around them.

Every class that meets the goal of 100 Box Tops will be invited to the Snow Ball. The Snow Ball will be on Friday, February 19th. The kids will have until the 18th to get all their Box Tops in. Many classes have already surpassed this goal and that is fantastic, keep sending the Box Tops in! You can check the poster at the school to see where your class is. The poster is right in the Commons Room, check it out!!



I want to clarify that the Snow Ball will be a dance that will be fun for everyone! We will teach the kids some fun group dances like The Hokey Pokey, YMCA, or a line dance or two. I do not want anyone left out and am not intending to have boy/girl dances (enough of that later right.) We will probably have a couple of different sessions, lower grades in the morning and upper grades in the afternoon or something. All of the details still need to be worked out but it will be lots of fun!


If you have any other questions or if you would be interested in helping with the dance, please feel free to contact me! You can e-mail me at cloverdaleboxtops@gmail.com.
