Support Your School!

Northwood is always looking for parents and friends to get involved. We have many volunteer opportunities such as a family fun night in April, staff appreciation week in May and help with boxtops and soup labels. If you would like to help, please feel free to call the school at 268-2470.

Box Tops for Education
Clip Box Tops from hundreds of your favorite General Mills products. Each Box Top is worth 10¢ to Northwood Preschool Center. A complete listing of products that participate in Box Tops for Education can be found at the Box Tops web site. Children at Northwood Preschool Center save the box tops (remember to have friends and relatives save the box tops for you) and put them in a plastic sack with your name and teachers name.

Labels for Education
The Campbell's Labels for Education program is on a label/point system and allows us to choose items from a catalog. The program includes products from Campbell's, Franco American, Swanson, Pepperidge Farms, Healthy Request, V8, Prego, and Pace.
