NEW BOOK CLUB FOR STUDENTS
We are excited to announce that students in grades 2-5 have the opportunity to participate in Book Club during recess. Mrs. Park will be sharing a sign up with these grades during Media Center this week and next in hopes for interested students in their grade to meet and discuss their favorite books. We would love for parents to volunteer during book club to help with the discussion. Please sign up using this link.

Want to help out with the fair?
Volunteer: We're seeking volunteer parents to help staff the fair for set-up, class visits, and pack-up. Volunteers must complete the child abuse and neglect training and show proof of vaccination. Click here to volunteer:
https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080F4CABAC2AA4FA7-44516966-bhes?useFullSite=true#Purchase Books: The easiest way to help is to purchase books during the classroom book fair visits. Scholastic rewards a generous percentage of our sales back to us as Scholastic Dollars, which are used to purchase books for our media center and classrooms. More than one of our recent in-person fairs provided over $5000 worth of books to our school, all purchased with our rewards!
Purchase books for Teachers: Another way to help is to purchase books for classroom libraries. Books chosen by our teachers will be available for purchase at the fair.
Set up an eWallet: eWallet is an easy way to send your child to the fair with money in an online account where it can't be lost. Visit https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/content/fairs/how-ewallet-works.html?fairId=5417293 to set up an eWallet for your child before their class visits, or to check or reload the balance on an existing eWallet. Please note that funds added to an eWallet that aren't used will be available for use at Scholastic.com and/or at a later BHES PTA Book Fair but will not be refunded.
