Scholastic Book Fair


It's time once again for our school’s annual Scholastic Book Fair.

Participation in the book fair provides a wonderful opportunity to encourage literacy and the pleasure of reading with students. All proceeds from the book fair will be used to purchase new books for our school’s library.

Our Book Fair dates are as follows:

Tuesday      April 24    8:30-9:00 AM    3:00-4:00 PM
Wednesday April 25    8:30-9:00 AM    3:00-4:00 PM
Thursday    April 26    8:30-9:00 AM    3:00-4:00 PM
Friday         April 27    8:30-9:00 AM

Sales of $1500-$3000 allow the school to take 50% of the total profits to purchase new books. Sales under $1500 allow the school to take 25% of the total profits to purchase new books.

It is our school’s goal to sell at least $1500 in books again this year so that we can take advantage of the 50% return. Please think of the book fair as a great place to buy birthday presents, early Christmas presents, etc. A chart will be posted near the office so everyone can follow our school’s progress. 

Please visit the Scholastic web site for information on their Featured Books, Family Guide to Reading, and Reading Levels.
