Help Earn Money for Our School!

Here are some great ways to bring increased funds to our school, with a minimum of effort on the part of our school community!!


School Cents awards 15 participating high schools with a total of $25,000 in prize money. Support your high school by shopping at Lindale Mall from October 1 through December 31 and turning in your receipts. Every dollar from your receipts turned in equals 10 points for your high school and every doller at food merchants is worth 100 points. Be on the look out for double and triple point weekends! The high school with the most points, wins the most money.

Help Support the Bucs!!
Customers "Vote" for their favorite participating high school by turning in their mall receipts at Center Court and receiving points for their designated school. Points from receipts are averaged per student enrollment in grades 9-12.

Food Merchants Outside of the mall include: Arby's, Burger King, Firestone, Collins Road HyVee, Pizza Hut, Planet X, Red Lobster, Ruby Tuesday, and Village Inn

Food Merchants in the mall include: Bennigan's, China Cafe, Great American Cookie/TCBY, Maid Rite, Orange Julius, PretzelMaker, Sbarro, Starbucks, Subway, and Taco Bell

Take your receipts to the box located in the center of the mall by the fountain, to the Collins Road HyVee, or the East Buchanan School Office.

RECYCLE INK JET AND LASER TONER CARTRIDGES

Cartridges may be turned into the elementary or secondary offices. Please place the ink jet cartridges in a baggie. Maybe your place of employment could save them for us too!
