You’re invited to Monarch’s Spring Book Fair! Join us in the Story Laboratory, where Reading Gives You Super Power! Giving kids access to good books and the opportunity to choose their own books will motivate them to read more. Like most acquired skills, the more kids practice reading, the better they’ll get! Being a new school, Monarch is still in need of many items. All proceeds from the book fair benefit Monarch Elementary. It’s a win-win!
You may start to pre-order as well at - http://bookfairs.scholastic.
There will be several extra special events during our book fair! Sunday, February 24th is Family Day. Enter fun contests with chances to win book fair gift certificates! We have extended hours on Tuesday afternoon, February 26th. In conjunction with VIP Breakfast Week, your child will have the opportunity to shop at the book fair with their special VIP guests immediately after breakfast.
Thank you for supporting Monarch’s Media Center, and we look forward to seeing you at the book fair!
