It’s that time of year again and my Spirit Shack staff has already been hard at work designing new items for the school year. Below you will find the 2022-2023 apparel design and price sheet link, as well as special order options and special order sizes. As always, we will carry Adult sizes Small-2XL in t-shirts, hoodies, and sweatshirts in our inventory for as long as we can. This year we will also be adding a zip-up hoodie to our inventory. Any youth, toddler, or 3XL+ sizes will need to be specially ordered by the end of enrollment.

Email me (cwitt@usd247.com) what you would like and I will make sure to add it to the order/get it pulled from inventory prior to enrollment. You can also stop by the store during enrollment to see the new merchandise and purchase. All specially ordered items must be in by the last day of enrollment, as we try to get them all in by the first week of school.

Our costs have gone up quite a bit this year, but we are doing our best to keep your prices the same to make sure it’s affordable for all. I’m always asked where the money goes that the Spirit Shack earns. ALL PROFITS stay with our kids in the form of scholarships, donations for trips, donations for classroom projects, and reinvesting into the business. Last year, we were able to give $850 to Nationals trips and $2500 in scholarships to the graduating seniors. Since we started the Lancer Latte, we’ve given over $20,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors and supported various national trips for students. Because of your continued support, we hope to continue this tradition for years to come.

Please let me know if you have any questions. – Cherie Witt, High School Business Teacher and FBLA Sponsor (cwitt@usd247.com).
