With the holiday season upon us, there are several ways
you can support South Middle School
We are always looking for fundraising opportunities that allow folks to shop as you normally would and support South, earning commissions at no cost to you, our community of supporters. With the holiday shopping season upon, there are some easy ways to benefit the school without much additional hassle!Box Tops for Education
Purchasing a lot of groceries for the upcoming feast? Scan your receipts to see if any qualify for Box Tops! The Box Tops program no longer requires you to clip and collect the actual, paper box tops. Instead, you can download the app on your cellphone and scan your receipt after any grocery shopping trip. I've also found it's worth scanning my receipt after a trip to most pharmacies and "big box" department stores, just in case! You'll find out immediately if any of your purchases qualify for a commission for South, and those cents add up quickly! All proceeds go to South PTO.
Bookshop.org
If you're buying books online but also like to support brick-and-mortar bookstores, use South's Bookshop.org link to purchase books. This organization supports local booksellers as well as nonprofits, and we're pleased to be part of their Associates program, so our community can support South without any additional cost on the price of your purchases and help keep local businesses operating! Funds raised go to book purchases & other media, usually to support staff professional growth or to provide classroom copies of books.
Scholastic Book FairNext Tuesday-Thursday, Dec. 3-5, South is hosting our annual Scholastic Book Fair. Come on by from 7:45 AM through 3:00 PM daily to pick up gifts that are perfectly selected for your child's age and reading skill. All proceeds directly benefit the South Library Media Center and teachers' classroom libraries.
You can shop online from Monday 12/2 through Friday 12/6: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/southmiddleschool12. You can also go to this site any time to set up an e-wallet with funds for your child to spend when their class visits the Book Fair during school.
Five Below
Perfect for stocking stuffers or smaller gift items, Five Below has all sorts of fun items our middle schoolers are looking for! From Sunday 12/1 through Saturday 12/7, if you show the attached flier to the cashier, a portion of your sale will be credited to the South PTO. Similar to a "Dine Out" event, this adds no cost to you and easily benefits the PTO!
