Get ready to pack your reading bags because our Scholastic Book Fair is almost here! This year, we’re thrilled to welcome you to Camp Read-A-Lot, a magical camp that transports students into a forest of reading adventures! 📅 Book Fair Dates: September 29th – October 3rd ⭐ Special Event: Grandparents’ Day shopping on Friday, October 3rd By popular demand, we are also thrilled to bring back the Middle School Book Fair for our older students! At St. Rose of Lima, we strive to provide literature that not only entertains but also aligns with our Catholic faith and values. Nevertheless, we ask parents to closely review the books purchased in our fair to ensure we avoid any unwanted surprises! Volunteer Opportunities We will be seeking volunteers to help make the Book Fair a success! Volunteer information will be available as soon as we finalize the schedule with teachers; keep an eye out for an email soon! Please note that all volunteers must be fingerprinted and virtus trained. If you have any questions about the Virtus process or fingerprinting, please reach out to Carmen in the office for assistance. 💳 Preferred Payment: Scholastic E-Wallet To make checkout quick, easy, and secure, we encourage families to sign up for Scholastic’s E-Wallet, our preferred payment system. 💵 If Using Cash: Please note that our fair is coin-free. All totals will be rounded up to support our Share the Fair program, which provides books to students who may be a little short on funds. Thanks to your generosity, last year we helped over 100 students take home books of their very own! And best of all, every dollar raised goes directly into updating our school library collection, ensuring that our students always have access to fresh, engaging, and inspiring books. We can’t wait to see our students exploring the forest of reading at Camp Read-A-Lot! Thank you for your support in making this Book Fair a fun and meaningful experience for our school community.
