The certificate program has been successfully helping families defray the out of pocket costs of the 8^th Grade Washington field trip at all three middle schools for the past several years.  The beauty of the program is that it does not cost any additional money!  Participating families are simply “trading” cash for gift certificates.  The PTO purchases the certificates at a reduced price and the difference is assigned to the students’ individual Washington trip reserve accounts.  It’s that simple!  We even keep running totals for you!

(We can proudly say that this program is being offered to our families with the confidence, approval and recognition of the Brunswick City Schools administrators.)

Buy gift cards for the stores and restaurants you normally visit, use the gift cards to make your regular everyday purchases instead of cash or credit card. And watch your field trip reserve account grow!  The gift cards that you can order through our certificate program are exactly the same and are handled exactly the same as the ones you’d purchase directly from area merchants.

The possibilities are endless!  Grocery shopping, gasoline, oil changes, video rentals, school supplies, clothing and gift items…all the shopping you normally do can reduce your child’s 8^th Grade Washington Field Trip fee down to ZERO!!!  Not to mention the certificates you could purchase just to give as gifts!
