Your students’ purchases will be charged using this account and you will not be charged for any unused funds. It is a safe easy way for students to make purchases without needing to send in cash or have change sent back home. If you prefer to send cash or check, please label the payment in an envelope with your child’s order the week of May 10th… all orders will be delivered to students based on the returned wish lists or notes from families.
Look for the wish lists to come home Monday or Tuesday May 10th or 11th and please send all orders back the next day… our fair ends Friday, May 14th!
