Immanuel Lutheran School

Parent/Teacher Organization

Introduction

This organization is for all parents with children in our grade school, high school, and Sunday school. Communicant members of Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church who wish to participate are welcome to come.

The purpose of the PTO is to promote child welfare in the home, school, church, and community and to bring into closer relationship the home and the school, so that parents and teachers may cooperate in training the child.

The officers and faculty set PTO meetings and topics each year and advertise them in the church bulletin and PTO notices sent home with the students.

Education Rebate Programs

Immanuel Lutheran School participates in five ongoing education rebate programs each year. These education programs are sponsored by various food companies—both locally and nationally. Listed below is a brief description of each program. Each program has a collection container by the church basement entry.

Campbell’s Labels for Education

Simply collect the appropriate label, UPC, or qualifying box top wherever you see the “Labels for Education symbol.” Each label, etc. accumulates points which are then redeemed with the Campbell Soup Company for a variety of items that can be used in the school.

General Mills Box Tops for Education

Please save all Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, and General Mills “Box Tops” and place them in the box marked “Box Tops for Education”. We only need the “Box Tops”, not the Betty Crocker points. Each Box Top is worth 10 cents and an easy way to collect money for the school.

Turn in box tops from participating brands.

Hy-Vee Kash for Kids

Kash for Kids is a rebate program sponsored ONLY by the MANKATO Hy-Vee food stores (Downtown, Hilltop). Save the cash register receipts starting September 2, 2003 and place them in the box marked “Kash for Kids”. For every $150 in receipts totals the school receives $1.00.

Kemps Give ’em Five

Save Kemps milk tops marked with the 5 cent symbol and drop them off in the box marked “Kemps”.

Nature’ Touch Milk Moola

Recently, Kwik Trip convenience stores began specially marking their dairy and other “Nature’s Touch” products for their “Milk Moola” rebate program. For every Milk Moola cap, bag top, label, etc. our school will receive 5 cents.
