Our Fall Book Fair is almost here! Students can begin visiting the fair on October 7, and families are invited to shop together on October 15 during Parent-Teacher Conferences.
To make shopping easier, we encourage you to set up an eWallet for your student. With eWallet, you can add funds online, and your child won’t need to bring cash to school. It’s a safe, simple way to give your student the freedom to shop while staying on budget.
You can set up an eWallet, preview books, and even donate to “Share the Fair” on our Book Fair Homepage: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/carlstuartmiddleschool
Thank you for supporting our school library—we can’t wait to see the excitement on students’ faces as they discover new books!
