Scholastic Book Fair
Get ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way (YAY!). Choosing their own books empowers kids and inspires them to become Bolder, Prouder, and Stronger Readers. AND—as always—every book they buy earns rewards for our school.
Here’s what you need to know about the Fair, which will take place from October 11th - 14th in
the school cafeteria.
This year, say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet—your child’s digital payment account. Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Anyone can contribute! Share each child’s eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give your kids more books to enjoy.
If you can’t make it to the Fair, then shop at our school’s Online Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.
Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping:

The countdown to more Bookjoy is on! Catch you at the Fair!
We are looking for volunteers! Please email Mrs. Pla rpla@stmaryum.org. You must be Virtus Certified to volunteer.
Baby Bottle Campaign
Your child is bringing home a baby bottle today for our Baby Bottle Campaign in support of the Gabriel Network. Please collect coins, bills, and checks over the next two weeks and return your baby bottle (even if it is empty) to the school by October 17th. Money collected will go towards pregnant women and families in need.
