Book Fair
A book fair flyer is coming home with students this week.
Please note a few things…
1. The food truck is not just for BES families. Anyone who would like to come get supper from Fat Belly’s is welcome to come, so please share that info with your friends, neighbors, and family members.
2. Please limit the number of adults who come to eat breakfast to 2, otherwise we will quickly run out of doughnuts. Remember that there will be another book fair in the spring so you can have some adults come now and some come in the spring. Our students are so blessed to have so many loving adults in their lives. If possible, come on the day that corresponds with a student’s last name to even out our numbers on the two mornings but know that there won’t be anyone checking IDs at the door:)
3. If you have more than one kid at BES, pick one of the grade level times on Family Read Day. We will get your other kid(s) in different grade levels to come read with you. If you have one student, please make every effort to come during the time listed. Please give us some grace and don’t expect to be in a hurry because getting kids out of class (especially if it’s not during the specified time) takes a little longer because they may be in a special or lunch or at recess.
Thanks in advance for helping us have a great Fall Book Fair!
