Book Fair in the IMC
Choosing their own booksempowers 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 February 6-February 17 at the library:
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:

Black History Month Door Decorating Contest
As one of our activities celebrating Black History, we would like to invite all roundtables to make a creative, uniquely decorated door this month. We would like to encourage all students in the roundtable to participate in its creation (researching, artwork, design–whatever best suits their interests). Students and teachers are welcome to work on doors at any point between now and February 24th. The doors will be judged on February 28, and the winner will then be announced on Tuesday, March 1, 2023.

We are so excited for our Black History Month trivia contest! Remember, there are two ways to win. Each day, one student will win a small prize delivered by a BSU representative for the fastest correct answer. Students may answer on the Google Form shared by their teachers in their Google Classroom for roundtable. It has a space to answer for each question in February. At the end of the month, the roundtable that has the highest amount of participation will also win donuts for their whole roundtable!
