*Important: Lunch Time Shopping Information For Students:
Students who bring money or have an eWallet may shop during the lunch hour.
Grade levels are staggered during the first two days so the fair doesn't become too crowded.
Teachers will distribute tickets to students with money or eWallet.
Students may choose to bring one friend.
Please don't send blank checks or credit/debit cards to school with your student.
Students should use cash only, in a ziploc bag or wallet, with their name on it.
Students are responsible for their own money.
Parents and guardians may shop during all open hours.
Credit cards, Apple Pay, checks and cash are accepted. Debit cards are not accepted.
Book Fair eWallet:
Our Book Fair offers eWallet, a safe and secure alternative to cash. Simply create a free account to add funds and/or invite family and friends to contribute so your child can select their own books. Any unused funds can be spent at The Scholastic Store Online or to fund a future eWallet.
Click here to watch a short introduction to eWallet.
If you can’t make it to the in-person Fair, then shop at our school’s Online Book Fair from April 22 - May 5. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.
