SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR TIME!
Dear Families:
Get ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way! For every book they purchase, your eager readers can choose another book for FREE! Choosing their own books empowers kids and inspires them on their journey to becoming lifelong readers.
Here’s what you need to know about the big event, which will take place:
• Monday, April 14-Thursday, April 17
• Open each morning, 7:30-8:15 a.m. for parents/guardians
Before the Fair, make sure to set up eWallet, your child’s digital payment account. Share your child’s eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give them more books to enjoy. (If you have more than one child coming to the Fair, you’ll need to create an eWallet for each one.)
Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet:
