How much time do I need to dedicate to the program?
You will probably find that the more time you put into publicizing Labels for Education, the more you and your school can achieve. However, this does not need to become a full time job for you! Monthly reminders and progress reports sent home to parents will keep the points coming in on a regular basis.
Don't forget to delegate! If each classroom tallies its points on a daily or weekly basis, it will be easy for you to tally the school totals.
And of course, you need to be sure to make time to coordinate with your school's administration and any teachers, librarians or coaches who get involved with selecting merchandise from Campbell's Labels for Education catalog. Orders can be placed any time between August 1 and June 1 each year.
