Our Scholastic Book Fair is a reading event that brings the books kids want to read right into our homes and school. It’s a wonderful selection of engaging and affordable books for every reading level. Please make plans to visit our Book Fair and be involved in shaping your child’s reading habits. Also, books make great presents!

The Book Fair will take place from FRIDAY, MARCH 31ST – THURSDAY, APRIL 6TH in the Mattos Library. The Book Fair will be open for classes to come visit during their library time, recess, lunch recess and after school. It will also be open during Open House on TUESDAY, APRIL 4TH FROM 5:30 pm – 8:00 pm.

This year, say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet—your child’s digital payment account. Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Anyone can contribute! Share each child’s eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give your kids more books to enjoy.

If you are unable to attend the Book Fair in person, we invite you to visit our online Book Fair at https://www.scholastic.com/bf/mattos. Our Online Fair is available from March 31st – April 13th. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.

We look forward to seeing you and your family at our Book Fair! Remember, all purchases benefit our school! Happy reading!

Try outs are on:

Monday, April 24 from 3:00-7:00

In the multi-purpose room

The show is on Wednesday, May 31 during school.

There will also be a nighttime show for families during the week of May 22-26th. (TBD)

Students need to attend the audition to be able to participate.

Look for the permission slip that came home last week and return to it Mr. Sherrod in Room 26 or the office.

When items are forgotten at home, it is important to not interrupt instruction. Please drop off all forgotten items by 9:45 a.m. Anything dropped off by then should be left on the cart outside the office and labeled with student name and room #. A yard duty will deliver those items by 10 a.m. Anything left after 10 a.m. will need to be picked up by your child (we will call the classroom). Please help us out and bring all items by 9:45 a.m.
