The Book Fair is Almost Here!

Here is the information on our upcoming Scholastic Book Fair.

-It will run Monday, March 28-Friday, April 1

-The hours will be: Monday  8:30-9:30
                             Tuesday 8:30-9:30
                             Wednesday 8:00-9:30, and 12:10-2:00
                             Thursday 8:00-9:30
                             Friday 8:30-9:30

-This Thursday or Friday your child will bring home a wish list of some of their personal favorite books from the fair, along with a flier that includes a few of the available books.

-On Monday and Tuesday we will have coffee and muffins available while you shop for your child's books.

-We will post each teacher's classroom wish list on a bulletin board.  If you would like to donate a book to your child's class, just check the board for suggestions.

-We can accept credit cards, checks or cash as payment.

-PRP will earn extra books for our school library based on the amount of books that are purchased during the fair.  

-The One for Books loose change campaign will also help provide books for our school as well as for a charity.  Scholastic generously matches those donations dollar for dollar.

-One of the reasons to have a Book Fair is to focus on the fun and value of reading, and to encourage more reading at home.


So, here our goals for this first year:
    1. Earn 50 new books for our library
    2. Donate 20 new books to a charity
    3. Have every family read 10 books to/with their PRP student during the next week

If we meet these goals we will have a popcorn and lemonade party on the playground, and the PRP students can wrap Ms. Kitty in toilet paper!
