Fall Book Fair

This week we had our “Monster of a Book Fair” with Scholastic Books. The students and staff were able to dress up with a different theme each day to help promote reading. We had crazy hair day, dress like a friend, dress like your favorite storybook character, wear scary monster teeth and spirit wear day.

      

                                                                       

On Thursday night, while parents were attending the general PTA meeting, students could wear their pajamas and listen to their favorite teachers reading their favorite books. They also got to enjoy milk and cookies. Afterwards, parents could shop at the Book Fair. A great time was had by all and there were many children that left with smiling faces and arms full of books.

Thank you to all of the volunteers that put in tireless hours to help make this book fair a success.  I’d like to give a special thank you to all of the staff members that gave up an evening to make so many children happy by reading to them. I also want to thank everyone that made a purchase at the book fair. Your contributions help provide the Christie Library with over 30 books immediately and Scholastic dollars that can be redeemed for books at a later date.  All in all, I would say our “Monster Book Fair” was a “monster” hit!
