Book Fair - May 2025
We are excited to invite you to our upcoming Scholastic Book Fair. Our Scholastic Buy 1, Get 1 FREE* Book Fair will connect your kids to fun books and inspiring characters — helping them become lifelong readers while doubling their reading fun! Not only will your child be able to choose from a wonderful selection of titles before summer vacation starts, they'll also get one free book for every book they buy! Hosted by the PTC, this event is an opportunity for students of all ages to build their home libraries and further their love of reading. As always, all purchases benefit our school.
Here's what you need to know about the Fair, which will take place from Tuesday, May 13th through Thursday, May 15th in the Tile Room at Forest.
Our Book Fair offers eWallet, a safe and secure alternative to cash. We strongly recommend setting up an eWallet if you plan to give your student a budget of over $20. Create a free account and add funds and/or invite family and friends to contribute so your child can select their own books. Any unused funds can be spent at The Scholastic Store Online or to fund future eWallet. Any unspent eWallet funds from our fall fair need to be added to a new eWallet for this fair. You should receive a reminder email from Scholastic letting you know if you have any unspent funds. We will be using a different book company next school year so be mindful of the amount you add! If you can't make it to the Fair, then shop at our school's Online Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book only orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school but will not count as BOGO.
Students will visit the Fair with their classrooms. Most books start at $6, with smaller items such as pens, pencils, erasers, posters, and more that are available for less. Just a reminder that Scholastic does charge tax on purchases. Tax is 10% of the subtotal. Also, there will be no returns accepted unless there is a defect with a product.

We're excited to share our love of books together at the Book Fair!
