The fall Scholastic Book Fair will be held the week of October 23-27. We will be open during afternoon and evening conferences on Tuesday and Thursday. The fair will be held in the fifth grade MakerSpace, off the main entrance of the new Meadows. Students will also have an opportunity to shop with their teacher during the school day. We accept cash, credit cards, and checks, and an E-wallet option is available. Proceeds will go to help purchase books for the library. Thank you for your support!
