The purpose of this committee is to raise funds for the PTA through the sale of books. A portion of the proceeds goes directly to our PTA. It is also a great opportunity for parents to volunteer in the school! We highly recommend that you set up an e-Wallet online for a better shopping experience. Click the link to set up your e-Wallet and order online too. Families can even start shopping online on October 9th with a free shipping code FAIRSHARE.
During the book fair, parents are needed to help the students choose age and subject appropriate books, as well as to make sure that the students have enough money to purchase the items they want. A Scholastic flyer will be backpacked this week as a guide to potential books.
Questions? Contact: Samantha Lebenhart, Erica Schulman and Patrice Gooden
