Schnucks eScrip Program

In the fall of 2006, we introduced an exciting new concept in fundraising, the Schnucks eScrip card. It is the easiest fundraising opportunity ever! All you do is:

• Pick up a card and register your new eScrip Community Card for use in the program.
• Schnucks and other participating merchants will make contributions to SPPS, based on purchases made by, just by using your card
• Your purchases create automatic contributions to SPPS.

Scrip Program

Purchase gift cards from any number of different retailers, including department stores, grocery stores, restaurants and gas stations and a percentage of the purchase is returned to the school. These cards make excellent gifts or use them when you are just going shopping. Orders are placed at least twice per month and more often during the Christmas holiday. If you would like to place an order, print the scrip order form and turn it into the school office with your payment.

Kids Carnival

The Kids' Carnival is a revival of an old fund raiser with a few new twists and replaces the Family Fall Fest.

For the carnival, snacks, games, crafts and other activities are organized to provide the students an afternoon of fun. The carnival also incldues a raffle drawing with ticket sales before the event.

Education First

This drive enables our school to purchase items above and beyond what we would otherwise be able to do. In the past this money was used to initially purchase the computers for our computer lab, purchase our mobile lab and Smartboard, and purchase a new computer for every classroom.

Please help us to reach this year's goal of $63,000. Remember that all donations go directly to our school. The campaign for the 2008-2009 school year will once again fund technology in our school. The goal is to provide a smartboard to each of the remaining 10 classrooms that have yet to receive one. Prayerful donations are always welcome and Memorials can also be made through this campaign.

SPPS has a wonderful recycling program.  Our school has been in the top 10  of the schools in the area for paper recycling for the past 6 years.  Thanks to the people who bring in all of their old newspapers, junk mail and catalogs.  Unfortunately we are not able to accept telephone books.

We also recycle old cell phones, inkjet and laser cartridges from your printer.  Just drop these off at the receptacles around school. We receive points towards new equipment and money for each one of these.

Not only does the recycling program at our school raise extra money, but it also lessens the amount of junk in our landfills to help the environment.

From the Spirit Shop, families may purchase SPPS Falconware or even uniform shirts embroidered with the SPPS logo.
