* Anyone who brings their picture packet, needing a new picture taken
- If they just didn't like their picture (nothing the photographer did wrong), they need to bring $5 with their packet
- If the photographer missed something (if it's our fault), they do not need to bring money with their packet

Another fun option for books is the Literati Book Club. It is like getting a book fair in a box, every month! 10% of every dollar spent goes back to our school.

Red Ribbon Week is coming up soon! Go ahead and plan those outfits now!


We are thrilled to announce that we've partnered with a new BOOK FAIR company for our fall fair! If you love Scholastic, don't worry, they will be back in the spring.
Our online fair is now open! That means you can browse the selection of books AND purchase a gift card for your child to use at the book fair. We all know sending money to school with our student can cause some uneasy feelings. Gift cards are SAFE and EASY! Plus, you can share the link with grandparents and other family members who want to help build your student's personal library. You can even purchase gift cards for your child's teacher!
Follow the link to visit our homepage https://efairs.literati.com/ and look for our book fair to open on October 13th!


Research is more fun with friends!

We know the weather is changing and your kiddos are growing! While you're cleaning out those closets please keep us in mind. Nurse Trey would love to take gently used clothes and shoes off your hands. Just send them to school with your student or drop them off in the front office.


#InternationalDotDay is tomorrow! How will you make your mark?


School pictures are tomorrow!
