Third Grade News
May 4, 2009
Important Info:
Book Fair is Half Price: The Scholastic Book Fair has been advertised as Buy One Get One Free. However we have been given permission to run it as a half price fair. Some families can afford one book at half price instead of full price during these economic times. We were notified of this change only recently. If you have any questions please contact Mrs. Farmer at the school. Thank you!
