Greetings Magee Families:
Are you thinking of giving a holiday gift to your child’s teacher or Magee staff member, but not sure what to get or how to get it?
Consider joining with other families for a combined gift card through Holiday Gift Scrip!
Here is how it works:
You can voluntarily make any monetary gift to the teachers/staff members of your choice on behalf of your child/family. Your gift is then combined with all the other gifts for that particular staff member, and thus “snowballed” into a larger monetary amount to purchase a Scrip gift card of that staff member’s choice. The Scrip Gift Cards will be given to the staff members just before holiday break with a card containing the names (not the amounts) of all the students/families who contributed.
The PTO will benefit from getting the typical Scrip rebate for each gift card that the staff member selects. Sounds like a win-win in this pandemic year!
To give a gift from your child(ren), please complete the following steps:
For Example:
The Smith family has two children, Jane and Jack.
Jane would like to give $5 to her homeroom teacher, and $1 each to her Phy Ed, Music and Art
teachers. ($8) Jack would also like to give $5 to his homeroom teacher and $1 each to his Phy Ed, Music and Art teachers. ($8) They EACH would like to give $1 to the principal, the lunch lady, the secretary, and the health room lady. ($8) The Smith family would indicate that information on the form and use the PTO Pay Pal or send in $24 total.
2. Send the total amount of money via the PTO PayPal (paypal.me/MageePTO) or a check in a sealed envelope to school addressed “Staff Holiday Gift Scrip”, no later than Friday, December 11th. Please make checks payable to Magee PTO. Double check that your check amount matches the “Total Gift Amount” you listed on the Google form.
