How to Register for the Program
After arriving at GrowingLocalLearning.com, set up your profile by entering the information required, selecting the store you shop at, and the school that you would like to submit your earned Bonus Box Tops to. There is no charge to participate in the program; however, you must register to earn Bonus Box Tops for your school. You may only register for Growing Local Learning once per email address and/or household.
Only BTFE registered schools can redeem Box Tops. Each Box Top is worth 10 cents to redeeming school. Limit $20,000 per school, per school year for Box Tops redeemed through the Clip Program. To register a school for the Box Tops for Education program, it must visit boxtops4education.com.
Your personal earnings will show the number of cumulative Bonus Box Tops you have earned for your chosen school since registering for the Growing Local Learning® program. Clipped Box Tops and Bonus Box Tops earned outside of the Growing Local Learning® program will not appear within these earnings. Your chosen school will be automatically credited with your Growing Local Learning® earnings and there is nothing that you will need to turn into your school's BTFE coordinator. To receive Growing Local Learning® Bonus Box Top earnings, schools will receive up to two checks per year, in December and April. The December check includes all Bonus Box Top earnings accrued through Growing Local Learning® from March 1 to October 31, totaling $20.00 or more. (If the total is less than $20.00, this amount will be carried over and paid in the April check. Similarly, if the April total is less than $20.00, the amount will be carried over and paid in the subsequent December check.) The April check includes all Bonus Box Top earnings carried over from the December period (totaling under $20.00), as well as earnings accrued through Growing Local Learning® from November 1 through February 28.
Be sure to visit the site often, as there will be exciting new opportunities throughout the year to earn even more cash for your school!

What do I do if I can't find my school?First, check to make sure that your school is in fact registered with Box Tops for Education. If it is and you still cannot find it, please contact our customer service rep who will look into the issue.

I'm a registered BTFE coordinator, is there anything exciting for me?Yes! The first step is to make sure that you have selected that you are a coordinator in your personal profile section. You will need your school ID # to verify that you are a coordinator. You will then see a coordinator tab which will give coordinators access to exclusive content like: printable parent letters, updated participating product lists, and starting April 1st - a forum to talk to other coordinators from around the country. Be sure to check the site often as we will be updating it frequently.
