Our Buy One Get One FREE! Scholastic Book Fair will be held Wednesday, May 21st & Thursday, May 22nd and you don't want to miss it! The Fair will be open during school hours and Thursday evening from 6:00 to 8:00pm during Cultural Arts Night. For every item purchased, you can choose another of equal or lesser value for FREE! This is a great opportunity to stock up on summer reading titles.
How the Book Fair Works
- It connects students to books they want to read at affordable prices (most are $4 to $10).
- To help students find the best books, they will preview the Fair on Monday and bring home a "Wish List" of their favorites. You can also make a "Wish List" with your child online at our custom Book Fair website. Just click on the link above.
- Students may purchase books during their preview and on their regular library day. They may also ask their teacher for permission to visit the Fair any day that they bring money.
How You Can Participate
- Back by popular demand is "Lunch with Someone You Love." Parents and other loved ones are invited to have lunch with students either day during the Fair. As a "loved one," you can bring a lunch (fast food is allowed) and sign in at the office at 11:30 a.m. You'll eat in the Fr. Keller Center with your child(ren) at a special table and visit the Fair during recess.
- You can help our teachers increase their classroom library with the Classroom Wish List. Just select one or more Donation Cards from the display. The titles are hand picked by our teachers. Take the Donation Card and book to the cashier. Once purchased, your child can fill out a bookplate and present the book to his or her teacher.
- You can help our academy library and needy children with One for Books. Book Slips will be available at the Fair for $1.
- You can still volunteer. If you have an hour to spare, call Susan Walton at 440-234-5529 (days) or 440-234-2906 (evenings).
As you can see, our Book Fair promises to be a fun-filled event for literacy and proceeds will benefit our academy library. I urge you to attend, and look forward to seeing you there!
Yours In Christ,
Deacon John Gregory
