What is SCRIP?
SCRIP is the gift card program that helps our school raise funds for the general operating budget. Each family has a minimum SCRIP rebate requirement to earn in a school year. If any or all of the requirement is not reached by participating in the program then the family will receive a bill for the difference through their TADS account in May of the school year.
How the SCRIP Program works:
Our families buy virtual and physical gift cards online at www.RaiseRight.com or on the RaiseRight App on their smart phones in place of cash, checks or credit cards for their regular everyday shopping. The Snake & Lily buys the gift cards from Great Lakes Scrip Center at a reduced cost to sell at full face value. The difference is immediate fundraising for our school! “Fundraising while you shop,” and it really is that easy!
How to get started today using SCRIP:
To set up your Scrip account download the RaiseRight App and click the "Join a Program" button! If you want to use your desktop please visit ShopWithScrip.com and click "Join a Program". For either the App or desktop you will need our WSSD Enrollment Code: FAL531EC9L82.

What is your family SCRIP rebate requirement?
Each parent/guardian of a WSSD student, signs a contract for your child/children every year. In the contract, a section covers your family SCRIP rebate requirement*. Each family has 12 months with which to earn the rebate requirement, and we refer to that time as the SCRIP session. The Scrip session starts May 1 and ends April 30.
For the current school year each family has $220 * SCRIP Rebate Requirement. It's per family not per child. One Scrip fee per family regardless of how many children they have.
What happens if I earn over my SCRIP rebate requirement?
This is exciting news! You have an opportunity to earn rebates that benefit your family directly!
Up to 50% of your SCRIP rebate earnings over $220* can go towards tuition credit**
Up to 100% of your SCRIP rebate earnings over $220* can go towards 8 and 11 grade class trip fund accounts
Up to 100% of your SCRIP rebate earnings over $220* can go towards the general operating budget
Some Examples:
Example #1 :$660 Total rebates earned (less $220 Scrip rebate requirement and less 10% Admin Fee) $396 Overage Balance (50/50 split example: $198 tuition credit/ $198 class trip account)
Example #2: $150 Total rebates earned (less $220 Scrip rebate requirement) $85 will be invoiced in May in your TADS account.
Example #3: $0 Total rebates earned (less $220 Scrip rebate requirement) $220 will be invoiced in May/June in your TADS account.
*I understand that there will be a 10% administrative fee assessed after family requirement is met and prior to rebate earnings calculation on any overages.
