🚨📚 PSA: THE BOOK FAIR IS CLOSING TOMORROW!!! 📚🚨

🚨 TOMORROW IS YOUR LAST CHANCE, PEOPLE!!! 🚨

The books are calling. The kids are plotting. The parents’ wallets are sweating. 😂💸

Our LAST DAY of the Scholastic Book Fair is TOMORROW! Students can shop from 9:00–11:00 AM, AND we’ll be open during Title 1 from 4:30–6:00 PM! So if you’ve been saying, “We’ll go tomorrow,” CONGRATULATIONS! Tomorrow has officially arrived. 🤣👏

BUT WAIT… 👀

Would it REALLY be a PTO event without us throwing in a little extra excitement?! Absolutely NOT. Y’all know we love a good giveaway almost as much as we love spoiling our All Stars! 🤪🎉

🎁 THE PTO IS GIVING AWAY A GIFT BASKET VALUED AT $100!!! 🎁

Here’s how to enter:

📚 Step 1: Bring your kiddos to the Book Fair.

💸 Step 2: Let them shop for ALL the cool stuff their little hearts desire. (We are not responsible for the sudden onset of “BUT I NEED THIS!” 😂)

🎟️ Step 3: At checkout, you’ll receive a ticket for your purchase. Write your name and phone number on it and drop it in the jar!

🎉 Step 4: Cross your fingers and hope that lucky ticket has YOUR name on it! The winner will be drawn at the end of the night!

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: We cannot guarantee your child won’t come home with 47 bookmarks, a mystery eraser, and a book they suddenly MUST HAVE. We can, however, guarantee that we appreciate your support! 🤣❤️

On a more serious note, THANK YOU for continuing to show up for our school! Our amazing faculty, staff, and students benefit so much from the love and generosity of this community. We truly could not do all the things we do without YOU!

So come shop, support our school, enter to win, and help us send this Book Fair out with a BANG! 💥📚

⭐ KEEP SHINING, ALL STARS!!! ⭐

⭐️ OPEN HOUSE TIME CHANGE ⭐️

Please note our updated Open House time!

📅 Thursday, August 20
⏰ NEW TIME: 4:00–5:30 PM

Because Fred A. Anderson Elementary’s Open House and the High School orientation are being held on the same day, parking will be limited. This adjusted time will help both events run more smoothly.

We cannot wait to welcome our All-Stars back and begin our journey along Many Stars, One Path! 🌟
