Popcorn sale continues through Sunday
Until Sunday, April 3 at 6:00pm, you may offer your family, relatives, & friends the opportunity to purchase amazing gourmet popcorn and help raise money for the Rockdale Magnet School! The Fund will receive 50% of your total sales from the fully contactless online sale to support all RMSST events and programs.
If they do not wish to order popcorn at this time but would instead choose to make a donation, please encourage them to select this donation link . By choosing this link instead of donating through Double Good, 100% of your donation will go DIRECTLY to our school.
PRIZES: EVERYONE WINS!
There will be a prize given to the top 4 sellers (irrespective of grade level). The grand prize winner will receive a prize of 15% of the Fund's earnings from your sales. The 2nd and 3rd place prize wins 10% and the 4th place prize wins 7.5%. All prizes will be in the form of a VISA gift card.
In addition, each student/parent who participates in the fundraiser and sells $600 of gourmet popcorn will receive credit for 100% of their Rockdale Magnet dues for the 2022-2023 school year. For those with multiple students at RMSST, $800 in sales (for 2 students) or $1000 (for 3 students) is required. That’s right! Your dues will be paid for the year.
We are looking forward to maximum participation. If you have not already done so, please sign up using your student's name at https://www.doublegood.com with event code GQR DVM.
