Scholastic Book Fair
The Satchel Ford book fair is coming! December 2-6; 7:45-3:00 Mon.-Thurs.; 7:45-12:00 Fri. Shop online or create an eWallet for your student. The eWallet will act as a cash-less option for your students. Students will visit the library as a class. Your teacher will let you know the time and day!
Once a year, the Scholastic Book Fair comes to Satchel Ford. Each class will come to the Media Center to preview the book fair. This will give them a chance to see what books are available. Teachers sign up to bring their classes to the book fair throughout the week so they can browse and shop. Each class will come one time. If a student brings money on a different day, they will be allowed to visit the Media Center and shop for books. Parents are invited to come during their child's class time or any other time during Book Fair hours! If sending a check, please make it out to Satchel Ford Elementary PTO.
The Satchel Ford Library receives profits from the Book Fair in books and cash. Monies received from the Book Fair go towards purchasing new books and eBooks for the Media Center.
When the fair is here, you can also visit the Online Book Fair site to create an eWallet for your student. Add money to their online account so they can shop without bringing cash to school! This digital payment option will only charge up to the amount you have given permission for your student to spend.
The week of the Book Fair, students can visit the book fair or order online. After the online book fair closes, online orders will be mailed to your home. Place orders or set up your child's eWallet on the Scholastic website.
