Book Fairs

Please support Woodland School libraries by shopping at our Scholastic Book Fairs this Spring. As always, volunteers are needed to make our fairs a success (and to keep the lines short!)

Middle School — April : 
Primary — April 20-21
Intermediate — April 24-30
Elementary East — May 5
Elementary West — May 6

We are always looking for new Book Fair chairs. The chairperson(s) will receive support and training from librarians, previous chairs, and Scholastic reps. Let us know if you would be interested!

A Little Time Together

This is a fun “girl talk” program for 4th and 5th grade girls and their moms (or grandma, aunt, or another special lady in their life) that is filled with lots of activities and great ideas about “growing up” for girls . The speaker, Pat Garrity, keeps the topics light-hearted with her stories that will make you laugh. She also helps the girls feel more comfortable talking about the changes of puberty to come. 

See the flyer HERE for more details.

We are happy to report that thanks to your support, Woodland families raised $3,681 for Operation Warm! For many children, this may be the FIRST brand new coat they have ever owned. Thank you again for your generosity!
