Stafford Elementary Library will host its annual Scholastic Book Fair the week of September 16-20. The fair will be open Monday-Thursday from 8:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. and on Friday from 8:30-10 a.m. in the library.

The fair will offer the most popular books and educational products for all ages, including the newest titles, award-winners, classics, and interactive products from more than 150 publishers.

Students will have the opportunity to purchase books and other exciting learning products at this year’s book fair—Reading Oasis—A Cool Place to Discover Hot Books!

A special Family Night is scheduled for Tuesday, September 17, from 6-7:30 p.m. so that parents, grandparents and friends can join their students for a fun-filled night at the book fair.

Like last year’s fair, this year’s Family Night will feature a fun event for all students…a Book Walk similar to an old-fashioned cakewalk where students have the opportunity to win free books.

Parents, grandparents, and friends are welcome to visit and shop at the book fair at anytime. This year they are invited to two very special events called Lunch with Someone You Love on Wednesday, September 18 (@ your child’s lunch time) and Breakfast with Dads and Granddads on Thursday, September 19. After eating, students may bring their special guests to the book fair before returning to class.

One of the fair’s primary goals is to help teachers build classroom libraries. Visitors to the fair can check each teacher’s classroom wish list, then purchase and donate a requested book, helping teachers develop an array of learning resources.

The Book Fair helps Stafford Elementary promote reading and learning while raising funds for additional library purchases.

Cash, Checks & Credit Cards are accepted at the fair.
