Shopping Boss Fundraiser Extended
The AAA Booster Club would like to thank everyone who participated in the ShoppingBoss Fundraiser last month! Congratulations to the 3rd grade who was the top selling grade for the entire school and earned a pizza party! 3rd grader, Tristan Nelson, was our top individual seller for Elementary School. 6th grader, Anna Li Quesinberry, was our top individual seller for Middle School, and 9th grader, Jordon Nelson, was our top individual seller for High School. Each received an exclusive duffle bag from Under Armour!


As the first of only two school wide fundraisers this year, the goal was for each student to sell just 2 ShoppingBoss cards for a total of 1400 cards school wide. With 445 cards sold, the ShoppingBoss fundraiser has been extended until 10/20 in hopes that we will reach our goal. In exchange for a $20 donation to HGCS, you will receive a ShoppingBoss card which will give you cash back on your purchases at over 250 participating stores. For more details about the fundraiser, instructions, and order form, please visit http://bit.ly/hgshoppingboss. The AAA Booster Club thanks you in advance for your support!
