Let’s get ready to READ!!! The super exciting Scholastic Book Fair will be on campus soon! This year’s theme is: “Books Bring Us Together”.

This year will be a bit different, there will not be any before or after school purchases.  All purchases must be done during student class visits.  Purchases will be made by the Scholastic E-Wallet, which makes it easy and effective for parents and students.  You don’t have to worry about your student bringing money to school and possibly losing it.

Parents load their student’s E-Wallet with the amount of money you would like for them to spend.  A report will be generated showing the amount for each student’s E-Wallet for their purchases when they attend the Book Fair with their class.  More details will be released soon.

Online shopping is also available from November 11th – 24th.

In honor of the brave men & women that have sacrificed for our country to provide protection & freedom….we salute you!  Let’s show our honorable spirit and have a Red, White & Blue Day!  Get creative with some hair designs, or make a shirt or just wear red, white & blue shirts or accessories with uniform bottoms on this special day.

We want to encourage our students to be helpful and to serve others that are in need.  Our students will take part in their classrooms by sorting and counting their homeroom contributions and having meaningful conversations about the importance of our service to the community.  We appreciate your support in this endeavor by speaking to your student at home and work together as a family to participate.
