APRIL
Scholastic Book Fair
The Scholastic Book Fair is right around the corner and we are looking for volunteers to help make this year's fair the very best ever! If you are able to give a couple hours of time, either during the school day to help students while visiting the fair with their class or during one of the two evening shopping times, please follow this link to sign up. https://volunteer.scholastic.com/#/signup/ndQmGdiae You will have to register for a Scholastic account to use the online volunteer registration; if you prefer, you can email Jamie Steinbach at jehitter@hotmail.com to sign up.
There are opportunities to contribute to the success of the book fair outside of school, too, such as picking up pretzels from Pretzel Boys to sell during evening shopping hours and making trips to the Scholastic Warehouse in Fenton to pick up restock orders. If you are willing to do one of these big jobs, please contact Jamie Steinbach (email above). There is a lot that goes into making this a fun and exciting experience for our students--all help is appreciated!
The book fair will be open for business the week of April 17-21 with family shopping the evening of Tuesday, April 18 and after school on Thursday, April 20. Stay tuned for more information about this fun event!
