Join us to “Read Around the World” this school year!
Scholastic Book Fair comes to our school Sunday, November 1st through Thursday, November 5th to share exciting books and learning products with our student readers. Parents and teachers will find plenty to interest them too! The fair will be open on Sunday from 10:00am to 12:00pm and on school days from 8:00am to 3:00pm. Proceeds from the Book Fair support our school library.
Also, when you visit the fair, look for the Classroom Wish List display to see how you can help build your child’s classroom library.
To help make the Book Fair successful, we will need lots of additional help running the cash registers, assisting students, and setting up and taking down the fair. If you can help, please complete the form below. Return it to Ms. Patti Bo, school librarian, via your child’s homeroom teacher. Or, you can email your preferred days/times to theresaclark64@gmail.com. If you have any questions, please call Theresa Clark at 415 710 7987.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing you!
