M.D. Williams Scholastic Book Fair Starts
October 10-14, 2022
Dear Parents and Families:
Get ready! This year's Book Fair is going to be epic! We've turned up the volume with more fun, more choices and more excitement, so kids will arrive curious and leave bolder, prouder, and stronger than ever before. Here's what you need to know about our upcoming fair:
Every dollar you spend will benefit our school directly
You can sign up for Book Fair eWallet, a convenient digital payment account, so your child can shop the Fair cash-free. Grandparents, friends, and others can contribute to the eWallet to help build your home library. This is the only form of payment that will be accepted.
We’re taking precautions to host a safe Fair at our school, focusing on preventive measures.
Save these dates and view our school’s Fair site:
