LITERATI BOOK FAIR
The Book Fair has been a huge success and it's not over yet! We can't wait to welcome families on campus this FRIDAY 10/13 for FAMILY FRIDAY LUNCH! Bring a lunch from home to eat with your Koala first, then shop the Book Fair together. No volunteer clearance necessary- please sign in at the MAIN GATE (not the front office). Grade level lunch times are as follows:
Kindergarten, 1st Grade- 11-11:40am
2nd, 3rd Grade- 11:40am-12:20pm
UTK, 4th, 5th Grade- 12:20-1pm
Visit the Jerabek Book Fair Site now to shop online, set up a Gift Card for your student or teacher, or learn about Literati’s awesome Book Club subscription program! Almost every book fair title is also available online. No need to bring gift cards to school- we can look them up quickly at checkout. If you're done shopping and have unused gift card funds, they'll never expire! Some options:
- Purchase books online at the Jerabek Book Fair Site or at Literati.com
- Subscribe to the Literati Book Club- Jerabek gets 10% of all Book Club sales- the first 3 months of membership is only $1
- Consider donating them to the school to use toward teacher wish lists. If you'd like to donate unused gift card funds, email Emily at bookfair@jerabekffo.org, or let any of our volunteers know at checkout!
- Use at a future Book Fair
