Spring Book Fair Needs Volunteers


The Spring Book Fair is fast approaching (March 12-19)and we still need more volunteers. For those of you who have signed up, thanks for your help. Please contact Simone Boothe to sign up.

There are big holes to fill, especially in the 8 am to 11 am slots. If you volunteer for this slot, you can bring your kids with you until they go to class. Please sign up for as many time slots as you can! We really need your help.

If we have a lot of trouble staffing the Spring Book Fair, we may be forced to just have the Fall Book Fair next year. This would be a real shame as we get a big boost in free books with the Spring Book Fair that we don't get for the Fall. Because we do two Fairs, we get an additional 10% of sales in the Spring.

The Fall Book Fair was so successful, that we are doing a program this Spring called "Caught You Reading" where a winner is chosen from each class to get a free book from the Book Fair. The flyer which went to teachers yesterday in case you are interested. I hope we can keep the momentum going.
