SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR

 The Spring book fair will be held from March 3-March 12, 2014.  We are excited to have new books for our students and patrons to purchase.  Each book bought will provide Scholastic Dollars which are used to buy new books for the library.  The book fair runs concurrent with Parent-Teacher conferences to enable students and their parents to look at the large variety of books offered at the fair.  The selection includes fiction and nonfiction titles for ages preschool through 6th grade with some adult and young adult titles.  The book fair is open during normal school hours and is open during parent-teacher conferences until 8:00 pm.  Teachers pick out books that parents and student may purchase for classrooms. There are lots of ways to support the library during the book fair.  Please feel free to come in and browse!
