Part 3 - Line 4a
WE MANAGE AND RUN THE CONCESSION STAND WITHIN THE SCHOOL DURING SPORTING AND EXTRACURRICULAR EVENTS.
WE UTILIZE THE SCRIP PROGRAM WHICH IS A COLLECTION OF NATIONAL AND LOCAL RETAILERS WHO MAKE GIFT CARDS/ CERTIFICATES AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE BY QUALIFYING NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. RETAILERS AGREE TO SELL CERTIFICATES TO THE SCHOOL AT A DISCOUNT. SCHOOL FAMILIES BUY THE CERTIFICATES FOR FULL FACE VALUE AND REDEEM THEM FOR FULL FACE VALUE. THE SCHOOL KEEPS THE DIFFERENCE AS REVENUE.
