Additional Resources

Grade Card Rewards

MetroFamily has wonderful readers. Case in point: Beverly Theige emailed me and asked if we'd like to utilize her recently-updated list of Grade Card Rewards. Your child's report card can provide some fun (and cost-saving) perks around town.

Thanks for sharing, Beverly! You deserve an "A+" for a job well done. She recommends checking with the business before you go to ensure the perk is still being offered, then be sure to thank them for encouraging our kids!  These have been verified as of January, 2009.

We invite our other readers to add others to the list. Just comment to this story. Thank you!
