Dear Families: Get ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way (YAY!). Choosing their own books empowers kids and inspires them on their journey to becoming lifelong readers. AND—as always—every purchase at the Fair benefits our school. Here’s what you need to know about the big event, which will take place October 7th through October 16th in the Movement Room. The fair will be open for students to shop during the school day. The fair will also be open on October 8th and 15th from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. for an after school shopping opportunity. Say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet—your child’s digital payment account. Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Anyone can contribute! Share each child’s eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give your kids more books to enjoy. This is not required, but is an option. If you can’t make it to the Fair, then shop at our school’s Book Fair online. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Every online purchase will also benefit our school. Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/glenpoolelementaryschool The countdown to more Bookjoy is on! Catch you at the Fair! Happy reading, Kristina Roberts Principal Glenpool Upper Elementary School
