Dear Families,
Get ready—the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! This is a great opportunity
to connect with your child over the thrill of bringing home new books to dive into again
and again. Studies show that kids read more when they choose books for themselves.
A love of independent reading boosts academic success, plus children who read more
frequently also report improved mental health.
Here is everything you need to know about the Book Fair:
Dates: February 17 th - February 21 st –Open During School Hours.
February 24 th -Febraruy 25 th - Open During School Hours.
Location: EMS Library.
Conference Event: February 26 th and February 27 th –Open During Conference Times.
There is even more info on our school’s Book Fair homepage:
While you are there, set up a Book Fair eWallet, the digital payment account that
allows your child to shop for books at the Fair without cash.
Many of us still remember the rush of finding the perfect book at a Scholastic Book Fair.
I hope you will join your child at our school’s Fair and share a reading experience they
will remember forever.
Happy reading,
Eric Armstrong
Principal
