Scholastic Book Fair is Here! December 4, 5, and 6, 2012, at the Jack and Denny Smith Library

VOLUNTEERS are still needed to help run the Book Fair. If you able to volunteer an hour or two, please go to mwpta.org and click on Documents on the upper right hand corner or click on the link: Book Fair Volunteer.

We invite you to visit our Scholastic Book Fair and experience a celebration of reading that provides families the opportunity to get involved in a universal mission: encouraging kids to read every day so they can lead better lives. Now is the time. Since there will never be a substitute for a parent’s direct involvement in his/her child’s education, please make plans to visit our Book Fair. Hope to see you there!
