📚 Book Fair Volunteers Needed! 📚

Our Scholastic Book Fair is coming up October 5–9, and we need parent volunteers to help make it happen!

Book Fair volunteers are especially important because they allow us to keep the library open for students to check out books while the Book Fair is running. We want our students to be able to shop AND continue visiting the library!

Book Fair money goes right back into our library and students! It helps us purchase:
📖 New library books
💻 Digital books
🧩 Makerspace supplies
🪑 Kid friendly library furniture
📚 Other library supplies and resources

If you have some time to help, we would LOVE to have you! Every volunteer makes a difference.

Thank you for supporting our Vega All Stars and our library! ⭐

The Scholastic Book Fair is Coming!

The Scholastic Book Fair is coming to Vega! This can’t-miss event gets kids excited about reading while helping raise funds for our school. Start exploring the books together!

Book Fair Hours:
October 5–9
7:40 AM–3:40 PM (closes at noon on October 9th)

Families are encouraged to set up a Scholastic eWallet for their students. This gives students a safe and easy way to shop without having to keep track of cash.

You can also donate to Vega’s “Share the Fair” fund! Donations help us spread the joy of books to students who may not otherwise be able to shop at the Book Fair. You can set it all up using the link below!
