Every purchase made helps raise money for teachers to buy books, for the PTA, and for books for Boggess students.


PREVIEW DAYS: Students will come with their classes to preview the Book Fair on Friday, November 8 or Monday, November 11. They'll be able to make a wishlist of books they want to bring home and discuss with their grown-ups.


SHOPPING DAYS: Next week, students can come shop the fair quickly before school (7:15-7:30 a.m.), during their class visit, or after school (until 3:15 p.m.) *only if* accompanied by an adult.


FAMILY EVENTS: Come shop the Book Fair as a family at PJ Night on Thursday, November 14 (info below), and you can join your student for lunch next week in our Lunch With A Loved One Cafe and shop together.


ONLINE SHOPPING: You can find an even wider selection of books and gift sets online. Book orders over $25 get free shipping to your home.

We need YOU to make our Book Fair the best week ever. We need parent volunteers for set up, preview days, shopping days, PJ Night and Lunch With A Loved One. Volunteers help students find the right book, check out, and more. Choose the day and shift that works for your schedule. You must have a completed background check in Voly.

Book Fair makes it easy for your student to shop cash-free! Set up an eWallet digital account, and they just give their name at the register. Friends and family can easily add to your book fund. And don’t worry – anything left at the end of the fair can be used to shop online or carried over to next year’s fair (forever and ever). It only takes a few minutes to get set up.

Boggess PTA purchases books for students who need a little help. You can help us put books in the hands of more students by adding funds to Benny Bengal's eWallet! Benny will make sure every student can get a book at the Book Fair. If you are able to donate, any amount will be appreciated!
