Dear Sylvan Parents & Families,
Get ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way! Choosing their own books empowers kids and inspires them to become Bolder, Prouder, and Stronger Readers. AND—as always—every book they buy earns rewards for our school library.
Here’s what you need to know about the Book Fair, which will take place from Monday, April 17 through Friday, April 21 in the Media Center. The Book Fair will be open to parents each day from 7:20-7:45 am and from 2:45-3:30 pm. The Book Fair will also be open during our Spring Curriculum Night on April 20. Students can shop during the school day.
This year, say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet—your child’s digital payment account. Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Anyone can contribute! Share each child’s eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give your kids more books to enjoy.
If you can’t make it to the Fair, you can shop at our school’s Online Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school library.
Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping:
