Common use of Fundraisers Clause in Contracts

Fundraisers. Throughout the school year, students and their families are asked to participate in various fundraising activities, such as selling candy or cookie dough. The funds generated from these fundraisers are used to purchase academic resources for students. Participation in fundraising is very much appreciated. Some fundraisers, such as cookie dough, require families to complete order forms and collect money before the orders are placed. In these instances, orders will not be placed unless the matching funds are also turned in. Some fundraisers, such as candy, provides the student and their family with the product up front, with the expectation of selling the entire box of product and submitting the money that is collected. In these instances, it is the responsibility of each student and their family to be accountable for the product that they have taken responsibility for and for the money collected to be turned in to the school by the due date. Failure to do so will be considered an outstanding debt owed to the school and may prevent the student from participating in field trips and extra-curricular events. Students are expected to demonstrate good manners. There should be no running, whistling or loitering outside the classrooms. Students are not permitted in the halls during class time, breakfast, or lunch unless they have a pass from a teacher or administrator. Violation of these expectations will result in disciplinary action.
