Can a separate safe be bought by the PTA and kept at school for locking scrip and/or money?
If unsold scrip or money cannot be deposited in the bank immediately, establish advance arrangements with the principal to use the school safe. It is recommended the PTA purchase a small safe or lock box to place inside the school safe. Prior to placing unsold scrip or money in the school safe, it must be counted by two PTA executive board members. Document the amount and have the documentation signed by the PTA executive board members. The principal may require that a school representative verify the documentation. If there is no school safe, it is acceptable to purchase a PTA safe if there is a way to anchor the safe to the floor. Seek approval from the principal and/or school district.
