Good news! The Book Fair is back!

This is our first in-school book fair since 2019, so let's make it a great one! The book fair will be here from June 6th-June 10th.

Fliers will be sent home with students the week before, including instructions for setting up E-wallet.

The library is looking for parent volunteers to help out during the book fair. If you're interested in helping out, please email Erin Mawn [email protected]
