Other PTO Projects

The PTO has several ongoing projects that help raise money for charity or for school programs that support our students. We appreciate their efforts and any assistance you may lend to these projects. Tyson Project A+ labels

• Recycling ink cartridges and cell phones
• Campbell’s labels (UPC w/ Campbell’s Kid)
• Box Tops for Education
• Pop Tabs for Riley 

These items may be dropped off in the collection baskets inside the front lobby as well as in the hallway by the cafeteria. Keep using your Target, Marsh and Meijer cards. We receive money from them if you have designated us as your school.

Pop Tabs

We are collecting pop tabs from aluminum cans. The tabs are collected and sent to Duke Energy who then sells the tabs for scrap. Duke Energy then matches the dollar amount earned from the pop tabs and matches it. The money is then donated to the Ronald McDonald House in Indianapolis. Monrovia Elementary has collected over 2 million pop tabs in the past few years. Please help us support the efforts of Riley Hospital by donating your pop tabs. Mrs. Davidson is our pop tab coordinator and liaison with Duke Energy.

Marsh Fresh Ideas for Education

If you shop at Marsh, every time you use your fresh idea card, our school earns points. We can use those points to purchase school equipment! To sign up, you can complete the Shopper Sign-Up Sheet that was attached to the Paw Prints newsletter, sign up online at http://www.marsh.net/srb_education.html or visit the Customer Service Counter at your Marsh store. The Monrovia school number is 28620.
