A Message from the PTA President
|
Dear Hunt Valley Families,
I am excited to have another book fair upon us! Next week, your students will have a preview day, on either Monday or Tuesday, to check out all that the fair has to offer and to compile their take-home wish list. My household always has robust budgeting debates after these wish lists cross the door!
The fair will have everything from graphic novels to sports books to books under $10 to kid crafting books and so much more! Student buying days will be Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. Reach out to your teacher (or me) if you would like to know which Buying Day your student’s class is assigned.
Each fair, your student’s teacher is given the opportunity to choose a few fair books that they would like to add to their classroom library. Families are welcome to purchase a book for their teacher’s classroom (or former teacher’s classroom) and leave a note (or not!). The Book Fair will be open past school hours on Wednesday and Thursday evening from 4:20pm-6:00pm for family purchases. If you’d like to purchase something for a teacher, but cannot make it during post-school hours, reach out to me and we will work out a solution that fits for you!
As always, if you have questions, please reach out to President@huntvalleypta.org or info@huntvalleypta.org.
Sincerely,
Kacie Jones
