Pizza Lunch Ordering Through School Cash Online Re-Opened (ONE TIME ONLY!)

@UMPSMarkham School Cash Online will be open until Wednesday, March 6/19 at 11:59PM for PIZZA ORDERS on Fridays until April 26/19. We will only be re-opening School Cash Online this time as pizza lunch orders are optional and were opened up already in the past for this order. However, because a number of families missed the deadline, we wanted to accommodate our community. This is a one-time re-opening. Please make sure you check emails for notifications in the future. Thank you!
