We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Scholastic Book Fair. Hosted by the library staff, this event is an opportunity for students of all ages to build their home libraries and further their love of reading. As always, all purchases benefit our school library media center.

After missing out on many beloved traditions last year, our fall Book Fair will be a familiar, welcome, and safe event for our students. Here’s what you need to know about the Fair, which will take place from November 8 through November 19 with a special family shopping night during conferences on November 17 from 4:15-7:15 pm in the BMMS Library Media Center.

Our Book Fair offers a cash-free payment option called eWallet. It’s a convenient digital account that your child can use for shopping at our Fair. Grandparents, friends, and others can contribute, too!

If you can’t make it to the Fair, then shop online at our school’s Virtual Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.

Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping: We’re excited to celebrate our love of books together at the Book Fair. We look forward to seeing your child there!
