Yes! Scrip gift certificates are available for purchase in the school office. They can be for any amount and once redeemed, the Scrip purchase is applied to the purchaser's account.

The entire amount of the gift certifcates needs to be redeemed at one time, but it can be applied to orders over the amount the gift certifcate.
