Dear Parents,

Book Fair is coming soon!  We are thrilled to host a "Reading is Pawsitive!" themed Book Fair from May 4th-8th. 

1) To make this fair as secure and easy as possible for all our students, staff members, and parents, this will be a NO CASH book fair.  We're asking parents to please set up a Scholastic eWallet account for their children HERE. It's easy to create an eWallet for your student. Simply add funds or invite family and friends to contribute. It provides a safe, cashless way for students to shop for their books in person and provides a secure contactless check-out. Scholastic recommends using Chrome as your browser and creating the eWallet using a computer instead of your phone. Also, if you'd like to contribute funds for students who may not be able to purchase a book, you can do that through the "Share the Fair" link HERE. Any excess funds from the "Share the Fair" donations may be used to purchase books for the library collection. 

2) We'll be open Monday (5/4), Tuesday (5/5) and Thursday (5/7), from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.   Parents may purchase books using credit cards, debit cards, or eWallet accounts.  Also, on Wednesday, May 6th we'll close at 3:00 pm, but then re-open from 5:30-7:00 pm for our family night event.  Rosemary's Treats and Shaka Sno will be at Mills that evening as well.  It should be a fun night for our Mills community! 

3) All students will be coming to the Book Fair with their classes at a scheduled time during the week of May 4th-8th.  We ask that if your child plans to purchase books at school, their eWallet account is set up by Monday, May 4th. To make shopping easier for your child, you can determine which items you'd like to purchase ahead of time by browsing the interactive book flyer HERE.

Please let me know if you have any questions. All Book Fair proceeds will benefit the library. Thank you for your help in making this a fun, safe, and successful event!

With gratitude,

Sarah Rasmussen
