📚✨ The Scholastic Book Fair is coming to Highland Elementary! ✨📚
Mark your calendars for November 9–13! 🐾 Students will have the opportunity to shop during their specials time throughout the week. We’ll also be open until 5:30 PM on Wednesday, November 11, during Parent-Teacher Conference Night, so families can shop together!
💻 Make shopping easy with an eWallet! Families can set up an online eWallet for their students to use at the fair. You can also use the same link to contribute to Share the Fair, which helps us provide books for students who may not have money to shop.
❤️ Why does the Book Fair matter? Book fairs are our library’s only fundraiser! Every purchase helps support our library and bring more books and reading opportunities to our Wildcats. We are so thankful for your support!
📖 Ready to shop or give back? Find the link below to set up your eWallet or contribute to Share the Fair!
Thank you for supporting our school library and helping us grow a love of reading! 🐾📚
