Changes coming to Scrip

Our Scrip provider (Great Lakes Scrip) is making some changes. ShopWithScrip will soon be changing it’s name and rebranding to RaiseRight. A new website will provide convenient features that have previously only been available on the RaiseRight mobile app. You will now see one platform, one experience, one name.

 

All of your account information will remain the same. You will be able to access the new website using the same username and password you have been using all along. We will keep you posted as more information becomes available. As always, contact Chris with any questions: 920-322-8059 or cgilles@smsacademy.org.
