Dear Families,
Get ready—the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school!
This is a great opportunity to connect with your child over the thrill of bringing home new books to dive into again and again. Studies show that kids read more when they choose books for themselves. And fostering a love of independent reading leads to a wide variety of benefits—including academic success and improved mental health. Here’s everything you need to know about the Book Fair:
Dates: Sept. 3 – Sept. 10, 8:15am – 2:00pm
Location: Challenger 7 Library
Family Event schedule and location: Thursday, Sept. 5th, 5pm – 7pm, Challenger 7 Library
There’s even more info on our school’s Book Fair homepage: https://www.scholastic.com/bf/challenger7elementaryschool
While you’re there, set up a Book Fair eWallet, the digital payment account that allows your child to shop for books at the Fair without cash. Then share your eWallet link so friends and extended family can add funds. When you fund an eWallet, you’ll have the opportunity to contribute to a giving initiative called Share the Fair™. Your contributions directly support our students who need help buying books at the Fair. Many of us still remember the rush of finding the perfect book at a Scholastic Book Fair. I hope you’ll join your child at our school’s Fair and share a reading experience they’ll remember forever.
Every purchase at the Fair benefits our school! Students will have the opportunity to shop during their library and PE times and can bring cash or eWallet to the fair. For the parents, we accept cash and credit cards. Please NO checks.
Happy reading,
Challenger 7 Library Team
Our first meeting of the school year, for the School Advisory Council (SAC), will be coming up this Wednesday.
SAC is a school-based group intended to represent the school, the community, and those persons closest to the students. The group shares responsibility for guiding the school toward continuous improvement. The SAC is composed of the principal and a balanced number of elected teachers, education support employees, students, and parents, along with appointed business and community people, who are representative of the ethnic, racial, and economic community served by the school.
Anyone is welcome to attend!
