SChool banking
The CAP COM School Banking program helps children learn to save by making deposits at school.
School bankers are also able to:
• Win cool prizes for making deposits!
• Earn up to $70 per year with the Great Grades and Reading
Programs!
• Make change into cash at any CAP COM branch with free coin
machines!
• Watch money grow right from home with online account access!
• And more!
If your child would like to participate in the Slingerlands School Banking program, please print and complete the appropriate form(s) from the list below. You may return your completed forms to any CAP COM branch (nearest location is on Bender Lane near Walmart in Glenmont), or to the school on banking day. School Banking takes place at Slingerlands every Tuesday at 9:10 in the main hallway near the "living room" area.

Boxtops for Education
Do you have a pile of box tops sitting on your window sill from the summer? Don’t forget to send them to school. Last year we raised over $700 with all those tiny cardboard and plastic labels, so it is worth the effort of clipping them.
There are collection boxes in the main entry and in the kindergarten-first grade wing. Please get them in by October 15th for the first submission.
We collect current (non-expired) box tops. Please cut them out and please don’t submit anything that doesn’t say “Box tops for Education”.
For questions, contact Julie Sasso at juliesasso@verizon.net.
