Old Navy Scrip Cards

In order to make-up the refunds that we got through French Toast WE NEED YOU to use SCRIP CARDS to buy uniforms. Old Navy gives 14% back to the school, which is a huge rebate!



We are giving you a chance to win a $50 Gift card ofyour choice.

March 26th, April 23rd, and May 21st



o For every $50 you spend on an OLD NAVY gift card you will be entered into a drawing to win a $50 gift card of your choice; for example, if you buy $50 in OLD NAVY gift cards your family is entered one time,if you buy $300 you are entered 6 times, etc. You are eligible for all 3 dates listed above.

o Your child will be bringing home an order form about a week before the orders are due. If you have been ordering Scrip online,please feel free to do that for this as well. We are offering the paper order forms for families new to Scrip. Fill out the form, send in your check made out to FOA and your cards will be here 2 days later.

o Once you have your cards you can watch for a sale on-line or in one of the Reno/Sparks stores. Remember, they do sell out of uniforms, so you need to order early. You also need to plan ahead. If your child grows 3 inches in January, his/her new size may not be available.

*** This promotion is NOT available for Old Navy scrip cards purchased at the Scrip Store from Mrs. Evans.

UNIFORMS

2012-2013 School Year

We have decided to go with Old Navy as our uniform supplier. Now there are more options on fit and purchasing!

 · Old Navy Uniforms (a “catalog” is being sent via email with order numbers and pictures, it will also be available to view at the school)

o Order on-line (Free shipping on orders over $50; watch for promotions, they have great sales. Please shoot us an email if you see one so we can let other families know)

o Go to a store to try on/buy (it sounds like Summit Old Navy has a good selection)

o If you decide to buy the polo dress YOU MUST buy the navy shorts that go under it.



· If you still have French Toast Uniforms that fit or you plan on handing down, those will be grandfathered in.

· This year we have been pretty lenient with theuniforms. THIS WILL NOT BE THE CASE IN 2012-2013. Only those items approved will be permissible, if your child is wearing unapproved clothing you will be called to pick them up. Some things to keep in mind:

o ONLY navy blue/white tights/socks may be worn. No stripes, décor, or other colors will be allowed. You can buy the tights/socks wherever you choose.

o If your child is wearing an undershirt it must be WHITE. If they have on another color they will have to take it off.

o They may still wear any shoes they choose, provided they are closed-toed.
