We still need help following up with businesses that we have contacted in the past.
    • If you have paid in full & the fundraising payments put you over the total fees due, you have options:
      • You could ask to have the overpayment placed in a scholarship fund for less fortunate students working towards paying for the trip
      • After the trip has occurred, if you paid for the trip with money you earned from fundraising opportunities, the overage will be placed in your child’s PA account (the money cannot be refunded in cash)
      • Or, after the trip has occurred, if you have paid cash for the trip you will receive a refund of the overpayment from the Lawrence Township School Foundation, providing your quota accounts are paid in full.
