Garden City Library Update
November 2017
Yeehaw! The Fall Book Fair is Galloping In!
Our fall book fair will run between Tuesday, Nov. 13 and Friday, Nov. 17. Classrooms will visit the book fair during their scheduled library time, and families can shop together on Thursday, Nov. 16, from 3:30-7:30 p.m. (same night as the FEN meeting).
The flyer coming home includes just a sampling of the fair books, which can be purchased with cash, credit card, or a check made out to Garden City School. You may send a note/wish list along with the money or email me at mmoore@cpsed.net if you have buying preferences for your student.
You may also preview/purchase more titles by visiting the online fair between Nov. 5 and Nov. 25.
Thanks to everyone who has already signed up to volunteer. If you have the time and a BCI check on file, I still need more help for a few shifts: Thursday, Nov. 9 setup; Tuesday, Nov. 13 Room 4 shopping; and Friday, Nov. 17 K shopping.
Please feel free to email me at mmoore@cpsed.net with any questions. Thanks! – Meredith Moore, Library Teacher
