ALL FOR BOOKS!: During our book fairs we try to help our teachers build their classroom libraries. Your child’s teacher will choose books and put them in their designated bucket for you to pick out and purchase for them while you are at the fair. Another way to help them is by donating any dollar amount in their name and at the end of the week they will come and choose books for their classroom. This method of donation is done through Scholastic’s All for Books program and Scholastic will donate one book for every dollar spent!! The teacher’s will be given the donation slips so they can thank your child for their new book.
