Only 7 more days until the Book Fair begins! Let’s get ready for the fair by turning in
our “powerful penny” donations today.
All donations go to our “All for Books” coin challenge which benefits
our students and teachers’ classrooms.
Tomorrow we will be collecting Enchanted nickels. The winning grade level of the “all for Books”
coin challenge will be receiving “enchanted treats”.
For every dollar we raise, Scholastic donates a book to a
literacy charity to help kids and families in need!
