Earn Cash for Schools With Box Tops
Are you looking for a quick and easy way to support our school? Box Tops for Education has been around for over 25 years, and it really can make a difference. In fact, the Box Tops program has helped give almost one billion dollars to schools since 1996. The Box Tops app gives participants the ability to earn for any school across the country with just the touch of a button. Plus, the Box Tops app allows you to search for schools that could use a little extra help, so you can help give students in low-income schools the opportunity to succeed.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: Buy participating products and use the Box Tops app to scan your paper receipt or submit a digital receipt within 14 days of purchase. The app identifies eligible products and earnings are credited to your designated school. If you’ve connected your Box Tops and Walmart accounts and you buy participating products at Walmart using the saved payment method in your Walmart wallet, you’ll earn Box Tops for your designated school — no scanning required. Twice a year, our school gets a check!
See a list of participating products at BTFE.COM/PRODUCTS Box Tops earnings really add up, and the more people that participate, the bigger the impact we can make. So let’s give our teachers the support they need and give more kids the opportunity to succeed. Together, we can help make a big difference!
Lead Water Results
Notice: Woodlin Elementary School has received results for lead drinking water testing
In June, Governor Polis signed into law Colorado House Bill 22-1358: Clean Water in Schools and Child Care Centers. This bill requires all licensed child care programs and public schools to test their drinking water for lead and take action when results show levels of lead at or above 5 parts per billion (ppb). The goal of this law is to lower children’s exposure to lead. To meet these requirements, Woodlin Elementary School has tested for lead at all water fixtures used for drinking and cooking.
Lead is a toxic metal that is especially harmful to young children. The degree of risk depends on the child’s total exposure to lead from all environmental sources – air, soil, dust, food, paint, consumer products, and water. Typically old or corroded lead plumbing or old brass fixtures can contribute to increased lead levels in drinking water. If you are concerned about your child’s exposure you can have their blood tested. Please contact your health provider to learn more about testing your child’s blood for lead. For more information please visit:https://cdphe.colorado.gov/lead-testing.
Schools/child care facilities that have lead results in drinking water above 5 parts per billion (ppb) must take action to reduce exposure to lead. When lead is found at or above 5 ppb, the fixture is shut off while a more long-term solution is underway. These solutions may include permanently removing the fixture from service, designating a fixture as “not for drinking”, replacing drinking water faucets or fountains, or installing filters. For the fixtures where lead is found below 5 ppb, we will follow routine practices to further lower potential exposure.
Results Summary:
·9 Fixtures were tested
·6 Fixtures had lead results that tested below 5 ppb - no further action is required
·3 Fixtures had lead results that tested at or above 5 ppb - we removed access for drinking at these fixtures. Long-term permanent fixes are planned for these locations.
Long-term permanent fixes are planned.
You can view the detailed sample results and remediation plans at the following link: https://cdphe.colorado.gov/environment/lead-safety/test-and-fix-water-for-kids. Results may take up to 30 days to be posted on this webpage. Protecting the health and wellbeing of Colorado’s children is our top priority, and we will keep you updated during the process at Woodlin Elementary School. If you have questions or concerns about our facility and the actions we are taking, please contact Thea Pickett atthea.pickett@woodlinschool.com.
