Amazon
Smile
Great
news! All Saints Academy is listed as a charitable organization on Amazon
Smile. Whenever you log on to Amazonsmile.com and choose All Saints Academy,
Amazon will make a 0.5% donation of your eligible AmazonSmile purchases to our
school. This works a lot like the Target program we used through last
year.
In order
to take advantage of this benefit, it is important that you enter amazonsmile.com, click on your "charity"-All Saints Academy and
then order as usual. (We receive a quarterly statement indicating
a total amount donated to our school.
There is not a breakdown of where it came from, so we cannot apply any
amounts to fund raising quotas.)
Family
Lunch
Lunch accounts
for students need to have a zero balance for their report cards to be mailed
out. You may check your balance on
School Speak. Please contact the office if you have questions about your
balance.
Tuition
Assistance
If you are in need of a tuition assistance
application, please contact Mrs. Bristow, marissa.bristow@allsaintsmn.org. We will be using Fair again with tuition
assistance. You are welcome to stop in
the office to pick one up, too.
