Thanks to Mrs. Thompson and Mr. HarriSon for all their hard work with the book fair this year. The book fair opened on Monday, November 2. For three days during their library class time, students were invited to shop the book fair and make wish lists to give to their parents. Some students knew what they wanted and were able to buy right away. We were also lucky to have a great turn out of Grand People at the book fair. Students were allowed to invite grandparents or anyone who is Grand in their lives to shop the book fair with them during their scheduled library time. Grand People and the students were also treated to some cookies.
If you haven't had a chance to shop yet, the book fair is still open during conferences. All parents who attend conferences and make a purchase at the book fair will have a raffle ticket to enter into a drawing for a free book for their student. One student per grade level will win a free book. They will be able to pick out their book first thing in the morning on Monday before they pack up the book fair for good.
This is the biggest fundraiser of the year for our Learning Center. And it has been quite a success. Mrs. Thompson and Mr. HarriSon are very excited to decide what to do with the profits from the book fair. But students should definitely see lots of new books in the coming months.
