When and where can I buy Scrip? Scrip is available cash and carry every other Wednesday during the school year from 8:30-9:30am outside the school gym. On Fridays at All Saints in the cafeteria from 3-4pm. Sunday's all year, between masses from 8:45-10:25 am, in the front of the Church. If you can not make it to the sales, there are drop boxes to place your order and payment to be filled at the child care entrance, and All Saints School entrance by the cafeteria. Also, the website is open 24/7 for your convenience. Anyone can purchase Scrip. You can have family, friends, even Grandparents purchase Scrip for you. They don't have to be members of All Saints. Are all gift cards/certificates available to purchase? Certificates that are generally available at sales have asterisk's beside them. Everything else has to be ordered. What is a "Scrip Gift Certificate"? Scrip Certificates can be purchased for any All Saints family, staff or faculty member. The family or staff/faculty member can then redeem the certificate during Scrip sales for any Scrip of their choice. Only the person buying the Scrip Gift Certificate earns the discount when the gift certificate is used. If you don't know what to give your child's teacher, or you would like to give a gift to another All Saints family, consider purchasing a Scrip Certificate. During the school year, orders are placed every Monday morning by 9:00am. During the summer, orders are placed every other week. We will inform you if that changes because of holidays, or vacation. Usually, if an order is placed on Monday morning, they are ready for pickup by sale time on Friday afternoon, and if you have given permission, they can be sent home in your child's brown envelope. Everyone! Purchasing Scrip automatically puts money into your tuition account, and also into a special account that helps to fund various projects that might not otherwise be funded. How can I use my share of Scrip? You can choose who gets your 50% of the profits. It can go towards reducing your families tuition, to another family that you choose, to the general Tuition Assistance Fund, to All Saints Church, All Saints Haiti Fund, a teacher's classroom account, or to reduce tuition for the children in the All Saints Religious Education program. When do I get to use my credit? Credit is applied to your account before the school year starts. Your school tuition statement will reflect how much money you have earned. The Scrip calendar year is June 15-June 15. So for this current year, you are earning towards next year's tuition, or for wherever you have chosen your money to go. We will send you a statement halfway through the year, and at the end of the year, letting you know how much you have earned. What is the School's profit used for? The school has used the money for different projects. One was to update the school's fire alarm system. The school has also used the profits for a server, and to help purchase a mobile computer lab.
