Giving to the school is as easy as shopping for groceries if you register your Safeway Club Card with eScrip. The eScrip program doesn’t cost you anything. And after you sign up you don’t need to do anything else! Participating merchants contribute each time our registered families make a purchase and swipe their Safeway Club Card. There are no receipts to collect, no vouchers or certificates to buy, no hassles for you – and every purchase counts.

If you have not yet registered your Safeway Club Card, go to eScript and click sign up! Select the Capitol Hill Cluster School PTA and type in your information. You must renew each school year. To go to eScript, click here.

You must have the actual Safeway Club Card number to register. Please call Safeway customer service (1-877-723-3929) to retrieve your card number.

As a K-8 campus, our instructional superintendent is Dr. Lolli Haws. She began her career as a teacher of the hearing impaired at the South Dakota School for the Deaf. After leaving the classroom, Dr. Haws served as both an assistant principal and principal in Missouri for ten years. Most recently, she was principal of Oakridge Elementary School in Arlington, Virginia where she guided teachers in using data and created a culture of ownership of student results which helped to virtually eliminate the achievement gaps in subgroups.
