Hamilton County Coupon Books

The final day to get your orders in for Coupon books is tomorrow, September 18th! Our goal is to sell 1,000 coupon books to raise $10,000 for our school. Each book is $15 and our school will earn $10 for every book sold! We plan to use the proceeds for technology needs throughout the school.

Any student that sells SIX coupon books will be invited to a Kona Ice and Kickball hang out on the new turf field!

The Top Girl and Boy sellers of coupon books for our school will be crowned Carnival King and Queen and the Top Class will win a pizza party! Tabulations will be completed by 3pm on 9/18, so make sure to get your orders in to qualify.

Fun Fact: Each school has their own decorated cover and this year, our cover was decorated by 5th grader, Gigi Chapin!

To purchase a Kids First Coupon Book, click on this link: www.kidsfirstcouponbook.com. In the top right corner, click "BUY A BOOK" and use CODE: KFCB26.

Parent Volunteers are needed to help count books sold and fill orders. Please sign up here.
