📚✨ BOOK FAIR WEEK IS HERE! ✨📚
Our Book Fair opens tomorrow morning at 7:30 AM when doors open and will be open daily until 3:00 PM!
Don’t forget to RSVP for Books & Bites 🍽️ — come eat lunch with your child and shop the fair!
👉 RSVP here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSedPkaG9hfhvN7_6i3dvLly-DIjDX6gWYSgbjtal976tnNkbw/viewform
If you missed out today (Bishop, Bond, Barros)- feel free to choose any other day to join your child. You’re welcome to join us any day that works best for your family — it doesn’t have to be your child’s scheduled day. Just be sure to RSVP the night before so teachers can turn in accurate lunch counts.
🎨 Join us Tuesday evening (5:30–7:00 PM) for DIY Book Bag Family Night sponsored by Stride Bank!
Make your own canvas book bag with paint, stencils, and patches, then shop the Book Fair together!
We can’t wait to see you for a fun week of Books, Bites & Bags! ❤️📖
