The Fall SCES Book Fair Was a Success

A huge thank you to the students, teachers and especially the parents who helped make the SCES Book Fair a great success. We saw lots of happy children during Book Fair week—all very excited about reading. Thank you for supporting this very important life skill.

In five days, we sold about $20,000 in English and French materials. Our SCES families gifted more than 150 books to teachers for their classrooms (about twice the amount gifted in 2018!) and the PTA provided more than $400 of books to students who didn’t have the means to buy their own.

Special thanks to our parent volunteers, who showed up ready to work. We really could not to it without a team of involved parents!

A big, big thanks to the following SSL students: Ryan, Henry, Tomas, Sofia, Aziz, Sebastian, Henry,
Annalise, Joanna, Lily, Jake, Lucas, Payton, Juliet, Bridget, Zoe and Callie.

We couldn’t run the fair—especially Family Reading Night —with out our student SSL volunteers.

An extra big thanks goes to Ms. Elkins and Ms. Rosenbusch for letting us disrupt the Media Center for so long. We couldn’t do this without their support!
