Dear Families,
Get ready — the Scholastic Book Fair is coming back to our school! This is a great opportunity to connect with your child over the thrill of bringing home new books to dive into again and again. Studies show that kids read more when they choose books for themselves. And fostering a love of independent reading leads to a wide variety of benefits — including academic success and improved mental health.
Here’s what you need to know about the big event in the library
-
Students shop April 28th - May 2nd. Families can shop before school starting at 8am and for a half-hour after pickup Monday thru Thursday and Friday before school.
-
Enjoy Muffins and Memories and shop the fair as a family on Tuesday from 7:45-8:45am.
-
Families shop together during Donuts with Dreams on Friday from 7:45-8:45am.
Visit our Book Fair homepage, set up a Book Fair eWallet, the digital payment account that allows your child to shop for books at the Fair without cash. Then share your eWallet link so friends and extended family can add funds.
Many of us still remember the rush of finding the perfect book at a Scholastic Book Fair. I hope you’ll join your child at our school’s Fair and share a reading experience they’ll remember forever.
Volunteers make the book fair happen. Sign up now!
Happy Reading,
Eric Takeshita
Principal
Del Sur Elementary School
