All gift cards must be printed to be used at this year's book fair. When purchasing a gift card, type your child's name in the notes section so it can be easily identified if misplaced and remind your child to take it with them to the fair when purchasing their books.

We still need volunteers! Volunteers receive a 20% Book Fair discount.

K-7 Picture Day is Friday 11/15

11/12/2019

Bring Your Smile! All students in grades K-7 will be photographed by Pollack Photography this Friday, November 15.

School photos look best when students wear color! Photos are taken against a white background.

All ordering will take place online after picture day. Pollack believes that you should be able to see your pictures before you buy them. There are no order forms, and no need to pre-order or send money to school. Pictures will be online for viewing one week after picture day. At that time, you may place your online order or opt for a retake (scheduled for Friday, December 6).
