The Office Max is a great offer. We would not qualify for the other grants as I am a Family Childcare home.
Absolutely love the Office depot contest. The book looks great.
Did I here you say pizza? What is the problem? Eating pizza, fruit and veggies at the Office Maxe! This will help our brains while we advance great ideas in literacy!
I love the Project Produce: Fruit and Veggie Grant for Schools. This is just the thing to introduce the students to new things and allow them to discover what they like with out someone telling them what to do.
The Office Depot contest is so cool. What a great opportunity for teachers.
The Office Max giveaway would be wonderful to win for my school kids. Thanks
Special Ed Resource room K-5 , eight kids every 1/2 hour this
