Scrip
Scrip is an on going fund raiser involving each Campus location and three of the Waukesha Parishes. Each Monday morning all orders are processed and filled on a weekly basis, usually by the end of day on Thursday. Scrip is just another word for gift certificates from national and local retailers. They're the same gift certificates that you buy at the store. Many popular retailers particpate in our Scrip program including Pick N Save, SuperAmerican, Chancery, Culver's and many more. Retailers agree to sell certificates to our school at a discount. School families buy the certificates for full face value, they redeem them for full face value, and our system keeps the difference as revenue. The retailers that participate in the Scrip program are willing to give our school between 2% and 20% of every dollar that you spend with them. All of us buy groceries and gas...some of us use coupons... none of us would turn down "extra money"! You earn money for our school without spending a single additional penny.

Scrip - Tuition Credit Program
The purpose of the Scrip Tuition Credit program is to allow Waukesha Catholic families to generate reduction in their family's tuition costs by purchasing Scrip certificates. Scrip certificates are gift certificates provided to Waukesha Catholic at a discount by participating retailers. These certificates are sold to and redeemed by families at face value by the retailer. The difference between their cost and their redemption value (Scrip Profit) is used by Waukesha Catholic to help offset the operating expenses. In an effort to provide additional assistance to participating families, the Scrip Tuition Credit Program allows families to earn credit toward the following year's tution costs.

  • A participating family must fill out an agreenment form.
  • The family will receive 50% of the Scrip profit generated by their family's weekly order in the form of Waukesha Catholic tuition credits for the following school year.
  • Waukesha Catholic Tuition Credits are NOT redeemable for cash.
  • The credit amount must be a total yearly minimum of $60.00.
  • Contact your local campus for more details and guidelines or call the Administrative Offices at 262-896-2929, ext. 324.
  • To comply with IRS rules and under Archdiocese guidelines any tuition credit is considered taxable income. A 1099 will be issued to any family earning $600 or more tuition credit in one year.
