The Scholastic Book Fair is Coming! ✨📚

Get ready for one of our favorite elementary traditions—the Scholastic Book Fair is heading to Putnam County Elementary! This is a fun and meaningful opportunity for students to explore books, make choices, and build excitement around reading.
📍 Where: Elementary Library
📅 When: Tuesday, February 17 – Friday, February 20
What to expect:
  • Tuesday: Students will preview the fair with their class and create a Wish List to bring home
  • Wednesday–Friday: Students shop with their class during the school day
  • Public Shopping: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 3:30–6:30 PM
🏠 Why owning books matters
Having books of their own at home helps children build confidence, increase reading time, and strengthen literacy skills. When families read together—even a few minutes a day—it supports vocabulary growth, comprehension, and a lifelong love of learning. Choosing their own books makes reading even more meaningful for kids.

Skip the cash with Book Fair eWallet 💳

We encourage families to set up a Scholastic eWallet, a secure and easy way for students to shop without sending cash to school. You can also share your child’s eWallet with grandparents or extended family so they can join in the fun.
➡️ Set up your eWallet and learn more here:

🎁 Share the Fair™
When funding an eWallet, families can choose to support Share the Fair™, helping ensure all students have the opportunity to take home books they’ll love.
📘 Bonus: Every purchase benefits our school—supporting classroom libraries and literacy opportunities for our students.
We hope you’ll join your child for this special experience and help make reading a fun, shared part of home life. Happy reading! 💙
