The scrip program is a wonderful way to help St. Philomena in addition to reducing your own tuition costs.Buy gift cards through the St Philomena Scrip program at face value.St. Phil’s purchases these gift cards at a reduced rate.The difference between the face value price and the cost to St. Phil’s is split 50/50 between the parish and your tuition costs.
The scrip year runs from June 1 – May 31.Early in June you will receive a printout from the scrip coordinator letting you know much your tuition is reduced for the upcoming school year.Scrip cards are sold after weekend masses, in the rectory, or can be purchased online (pick up after mass or in the rectory).
