The MLC Alternative

Buy Scrip!

There are 100+ stores and services that participate in the Scrip program allowing MLC community members to purchase gift cards that return profit to the school. It's a great way to raise funds for the school without dipping deeper into your pocketbook. Use scrip for your regular shopping needs at a wide variety of stores in the local area.

Boxtops for Education

We still participate in Boxtops for Education so check the tops of all those cereal boxes and granola bars and biscuit dough and clip out those little coupons. Linda Larkin is still our Boxtops Queen and through everyone's hard work, we end up bringing in about $100 for the PTSA.
