Dexter Community Schools
Fundraising Partners
Parents often ask how they can support our programs financially. In addition to focused fund drives, the following businesses and programs allow families to support Dexter Schools as part of their regular day-to-day activities.
If you have questions about any of these programs, please contact the booster club that is involved.
Boxtops for Education
By redeeming BoxTops for Education labels from participating products, schools earn ten cents per label. Labels are redeemed twice a year for cash.
Send your trimmed labels in a plastic baggie to the school office.

Busch's Cash for Education
Busch's Cash for Education program has long been a strong support for Dexter Community Schools schools and school groups.
In the past, the program used rechargeable gift cards to credit shoppers with a percentage "rebate" for their purchases, with the credit being applicable toward a particular fundraiser, for example, seventh grade camp.
As of November 1st, 2015, the rechargeable cards will no longer be needed. Instead, families will link their MyWay accounts to the programs they want to earn funds for. This needs to happen between October 12th and December 31st, 2015.
The following documents provide more detailed information for participating families.
