It is Scholastic Book Fair Time. The Book Fair will run from October 10 through October 14 from 7:45am to 2:30pm daily. The Book Fair will be held at Margaret Brent Middle School in the Media Center. There will be a Parent Night on Thursday, October 13, from 5:30pm - 7:30pm. To learn more, visit the Margaret Brent Middle School Book Fair Homepage! For a preview of some of the books that will be available at the fair, you can check out the Book Fair Digital Flyer!
In order to make the Book Fair a success, we will need volunteers. If you are able to help, please sign up on the MBMS Scholastic Book Fair Signup Sheet. The Book Fair cannot happen without the support of our volunteers!
This year, in addition to cash, check, or credit card, we will be offering the Book Fair eWallet. eWallet is a convenient, cash-free payment system. eWallet is a digital payment account allowing you to fund your child’s purchases in advance. Empowered to choose books without handling money, kids focus on what matters most at the Book Fair: discovering a lifelong love of reading. To learn more, check out this video! To set up your eWallet account, go to the eWallet Setup Page on or after September 19.
