Today is the LAST DAY of the Book Fair! If you haven't had a chance to stop by yet, we're open until 8pm tonight.

Can you lend a hand? We could use some help with clean-up at 8pm. The more hands we have, the quicker it goes!

Can't make it in person? Visit olepta.org for Book Fair details and to shop online.

Thank you for supporting our readers!

📚 Book Fair continues today! 📚

Kids can purchase during the school day, and don't forget, if you set up an eWallet ahead of time, your child can shop without needing cash on hand.

We could still use a hand with a few volunteer shifts TOMORROW. Sign-up in the comments, pinned post, bio, and OLE PTA website (olepta.ORG)

⏰ Are you shopping Amazon Prime Days today & tomorrow, Oct 6 & 7?

Consider adding something from our Teacher Amazon Wish Lists to your cart and help stock our Olson classrooms!

We are also still looking for new or gently used sweatpants for the nurses office in all sizes!

🍎 A Small Way to Make a Big Difference 🍎

Our Olson teachers work hard to create warm, well-stocked classrooms for every student — and many have Amazon Wish Lists with a few extras that would go a long way this year.

Whether it's classroom supplies, books, or small comfort items, anything you're able to give helps make our teachers' classrooms feel a little more ready. Find the lists at here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tMJCfOdXV7xdGn6a-ETCBSJC4PbbdtlDV-TQnTHoE3c/edit?tab=t.0

Thank you for supporting Olson's amazing teachers! 💛

📚 The Book Fair is this week! 📚
We still need volunteers to help the Fair run smoothly, several shifts are open, especially Thursday 9am-1pm and take-down that evening at 8pm. You do not need to be an approved volunteer for this as volunteers will never be alone with students during the Fair.

Tuesday through Thursday, the Scholastic Book Fair is open in the Media Center! Tuesday during the school day is preview only, then Tuesday evening during conferences it opens for shopping. Wednesday and Thursday, kids can purchase during the school day, and we're open again Thursday evening during conferences for families.

Learn more at the PTA website pinned on our profile and sign-up to volunteer through the link in this shared post.

📚 The Scholastic Book Fair is coming to the library October 6-8! 📚

October 6 is our preview day, and it overlaps with conferences, so swing by the library with your student after your conference and start shopping! Every book you buy helps restock the Book Nook and our library.

At checkout, you'll also have the chance to donate to a separate fund that puts more books directly in the hands of individual students who need them.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
We also need volunteers to help run the fair!
