Serving O'Brien & Clay Counties
Nostalgia sets in when one brings up the words “book fair.” Certainly, nearly all students look forward to their schools’ Scholastic Book Fair each year.
It is a coveted holiday of sorts in which parents sometimes splurge on a book, eraser, cool pencil or sometimes a poster in order to support the school. Book fairs also instill within students that reading anywhere, especially within the home, is key to their success.
Things will look a little different for Clay Central/Everly’s annual Scholastic Book Fair as the event has gone fully online this year. Instead of a classroom being turned into a small-scale Barnes and Nobles, the fair will be held on the Scholastic website from Nov. 16-Nov. 29.
Perks of ordering Scholastic books during a school book fair include earning 25 percent rewards from each purchase made to help the school supply their classrooms with new books and learning essentials. All orders over $25 customers receive free shipping.
If you would like to give the gift of literature to someone this holiday season or would like to support Clay Central/Everly Elementary, visit the Scholastic Website at https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bookfairs and search Clay Central /Everly. You will find their book fair there and be able to shop the event online.
