eWALLET “CASHLESS” BOOK FAIR SHOPPING!

Setup an eWallet for your student so they can shop “cashless” at our Spring Book Fair!

Instructions for setting up your child’s eWallet can be found on our Book Fair home page.

**If you are interested in donating books from the Fair to your child’s classroom, please ask your teacher for a link to their teacher e-Wallet to make a contribution.
