Scrip/Trip (Tuition ReImbursement Program)

This program involves purchasing gift certificates (scrip) for various businesses, restaurants, and stores at face value. These merchants then donate a percentage to Dearborn Christian school (DCS). This percentage can be applied to your May tuition (trip) or it can be donated to DCS.
