Dear Families,
Get ready—the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to Westfield Friends School! This is a great opportunity to connect with your student 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. A love of independent reading boosts academic success and fosters creativity. Scholastic will also give back rewards to our School when you shop for books. Win-win!
Your student’s class will be scheduled for a specific time to visit our Book Fair (schedule to follow), and visitors to our Pancake Breakfast & Grandfriends Day can also shop the Book Fair!
Here’s everything you need to know about the Book Fair:
Dates: Tuesday, April 29 - Friday, May 2nd
Location: Meeting House
Family Event schedule and location: Grandfriends Day in the Meeting House!
There’s even more info on our school’s Book Fair homepage: https://www.scholastic.com/bf/westfieldfriendsschool
While you’re there, set up a Book Fair eWallet, the digital payment account that allows your student 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 from 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 student at our Westfield Friends School’s Book Fair and share a reading experience they’ll remember forever.
