Cairo Elementary has a number of label programs that allow us to earn money or points to redeem for school supplies and equipment.

Campbell's Labels for Education program lets us earn points redeemable for a number of different classroom supplies, educational tools, recess and physical education equipment. We collect the UPC's from all Campbell's products as well as Pepperidge Farms, V-8 and Swanson. We also collect the caps from V-8 juices and splash drinks. For a complete list, visit

Box Tops for Education is a program sponsored by the General Mills Corp. Each box top is worth 10 cents and all box tops collected are credited to the classroom collecting them.
