BOX TOPS FOR
EDUCATION: $1,700 AND COUNTING
Carney-Nadeau has
been a participant in the Box Tops for Education school fund-raising program
since 2002. Since then, the school has raised
over $1,700 in extra funds that have been used for a variety of school
improvements: new playground equipment,
new water bubblers, and benches and picnic tables in the playground area. The program works because of the supportive
community. Parents, grandparents,
friends and neighbors have been cutting the little red and white “Box Tops for
Education” coupon from a wide variety of products from General Mills and
sending them to us. Each coupon is
worth ten cents. Included are the
following brands: General Mills cereal, Betty Crocker snacks, Pillsbury baking
products, Yoplait dairy products, Ziploc bags or containers, Kleenex,
Cottonelle, Huggies and Hefty paper products.
Another way family
and friends can help the school raise extra funds for our elementary kids is by
shopping on-line. It is easy as 1,2,3.
1. Sign up to support Carney-Nadeau School at
the Box Tops website (www.btfe.com). It’s fast and it’s free.
2. Then browse through the 100+ participating
stores. Search for whatever you want to
buy and shop online just as you normally would.
3. Carney-Nadeau can earn up to 15% cash back
each year.
With all the
financial difficulties schools are facing today, every little bit of extra cash
really helps! We have collected $640
worth of Box Top coupons so far this year.
Please keep these coupons coming in; they really help. Thank you so much to all who have helped in
the past eight years!

HI-Q NEWS by Jay Brand
The Hi-Q Team
was pleased with their success in the last competition of the year. Seated are Issac Erickson, Kevin
Lowry, Devon Brand, and Olivia
Dziedzic. Standing are Clay
Hollingshead and Chelsey Chenard-Powell.
Many thanks to Jay Brand for his fourth year as Hi Q coach! The 2010
HI-Q season ended on a successful note when the Carney-Nadeau team
traveled to Gillette, Wisconsin on March 2nd for a meet with the host
school and Menominee. The Maroons
were in the running for a return trip to the HI-Q tournament later this month
while the Gillette Tigers were ahead of the Wolves in the regular season
points total. However, the Wolves put
together their best game of the season to cruise past Gillette while pushing
Menominee for most of the match before succumbing to the more experienced
Maroons. The final score read
Gillette-17, Carney-28, and Menominee-34.
The 28 points put up by the Wolves was the second highest score ever
recorded by a CN team and moved them up in the season points total from
17th place to 11th place overall.
Sadly, the season ended as the Wolves were
gaining momentum, but their success will keep them hungry for next year. A consolation lunch at Appleby’s in Marinette followed while
good times and memories were shared among the players. Team players include Seniors Olivia Dziedzic and Chelsey Chenard-Powell, Juniors Issac Erickson and Clay
Hollingshead, and Freshmen
Kevin Lowry and Devon Brand. Jay
Brand coaches the HI-Q team. |
