From Mrs. Main in the library HELP NEEDED-SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR-NOV. 13-18 We are about 4 weeks out from our fall Scholastic Book Fair. A successful book fair takes several volunteers and we are blessed with wonderful parents who volunteer for our events. Last week, a volunteer sign up form went home to students in grades PreK-6th grade. If you are able to help with the fair, or donate refreshments for special events outside of the school day, please fill out the form and return it to school with your student. Or you can e-mail me at [email protected] All elementary and middle school classes visit the fair so we welcome parents from all classes to volunteer! Thanks to those who have already volunteered! A fun time is guaranteed!

We will have special events on Dec. 12th to include music performances, story time, etc. Stay tuned for more!
