All volunteers who sign up for 2 or more shifts will receive a free book (up to $15 in value).
 
round up

Our Book Fair will be **coinless**! Purchases can be made using coins, but coin change will not be provided for cash purchases, making transactions smoother & quicker for your student.
 
All rounded-up transactions will go to our "Share the Fair" initiative, providing books for our students in need and supporting our classroom libraries. It's a win-win for everyone!

ewallet
 
Convenient and secure, Scholastic eWallet lets your student choose books they want to read!
 
Instead of sending your student to school with cash for the book fair, you can now easily create an eWallet. This allows your student to spend a pre-allotted amount of money on books at the fair, without you worrying about cash getting lost or stolen. Simply set up an account for this fair, print out the eWallet barcode and have funds immediately available for your student to shop.
 
Once a child's eWallet is created, it remains your account so you can use the same eWallet at future fairs. Click here for a tutorial to see how I can access my existing eWallet balance.
 
 
Plus, books always make great gifts! You can set up your eWallet up to 3 weeks prior to the fair and share your eWallet link so friends and family can help your student find even more to read.
 
 
coin war

Bring in $2 dollars or donate your spare change to our coin war! This is a fun challenge to see which grade will bring in the most (calculated by student). Students in the winning grade will receive an extra library book checkout for the rest of the school year!
 
Donations will benefit our Share the Fair program. Your act of kindness helps bring more knowledge, imagination and love for reading to our students.
