SPRING 2023 Book Fair

 

SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR – APRIL 2023       

 Oakland Elementary

   We are excited about our upcoming spring Book Fair!  Students that bring money (most books are at least $5) will be able to shop at the book fair during their class’s weekly scheduled library time.  The fair will run for one week, from April 24-28.  SALES TAX MUST BE ADDED TO PURCHASES THIS YEAR!  Unfortunately, parents will not be able to shop with their children during the school day unless you sign up to volunteer for a time slot through our PTA and have completed a District Two background check.  However, if you would like to shop with your child, the fair will be open to families during Fine Arts Night on TUESDAY, 4/25 from 5:30-7:00 pm.   In addition, an online shopping option is available April 20 – May 3 at https://www.scholastic.com/bf/oaklandelementaryschool8  You can also add money to your child’s eWallet at this OES Scholastic site (see back of this flyer for info on the eWallet).  Please make sure that you are linked to Oakland when you shop online.  We appreciate your support of our Scholastic Book Fair!

***NEW – SALES TAX (7 percent) must be added to all book fair purchases! ***
