HOW IT WORKS

1. BUY Box Tops products you already know and love.

2. SCAN your receipts in the app.

3. EARN cash for your school!

Franconia Elementary will earn funds that can be used towards anything the school needs (books, technology, sports equipment, field trips, etc.)

Please email any photos from school events for the yearbook to Franconiahs@gmail.com

Throughout the year, opportunities arise to help a fellow Franconia Falcon (and sometimes their family too). The needs are normally unpredictable and anonymous, but in many times they are needs that fellow Falcons can help meet!

If you are interested in hearing about these needs and possibly helping out, join our Facebook page: Falcons Helping Falcons
