Dear Parents & Friends,
Our Scholastic Book Fair is quickly approaching! We will open for business on Monday, February 24. The book fair hours are 9:00am-11:00am & 12:30-3:00pm. This year Scholastic is offering eWallet. The eWallet option allows you to "load" an account for your child so he/she can shop within a set budget. And, you will only be charged for the amount spent! It is a great way to allow your child to shop without the hassle of sending money or trying to shop with your child! To set up an eWallet account, please visit our MES Scholastic Book Fair website: https://www.scholastic.com/bf/meridianelementaryschool2.
We hope you will take advantage of this convenient and simple opportunity to be a part of our Scholastic Book Fair!!
