eScrip Registration Helps the Class of 2011
Newport PTSA has been generating more than $1,500 each year by using the eScrip program. The more parents, friends and family members that register, the more EASY money that the Class of 2011 receives for Grad Knight.

How does the eScrip program work?
• Register your existing grocery loyalty, debit and credit cards in the eScrip program.
• Participating national, regional and local merchants make contributions to our class based on how much you use those registered loyalty, debit & credit cards
