This year the Book Fair will be Monday 11/17/25 - Friday 11/21/25.

Sign up for a shift at the Book Fair here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080D4CA4AB2EA1FC1-60526729-bookfair 

We try to make sure every kid who wants a book, gets to come pick out a book at book fair, regardless of financial circumstances. I’ve worked with our scholastic representative to send as many of the lower priced books as they can, but in the past, they haven’t always appealed to all the kids who want a book. If you have any new/like new books laying around your house that you’d be willing to donate so we can increase our selection, I’d love to come pick them up.

Or, if you’d like to contribute to our share the fair fund, that is part of what we use to purchase books for students who don’t have the money. Here is the link to Share the Fair!
