 NORTH CAMPUS

The BCS Book Fair will come to the MPR at North campus Monday, Sept 8 - Saturday, Sept 13. We are excited to share that this year the North Book Fair will be provided by Linden Tree! Linden Tree is a family owned bookstore dedicated to children literacy. They have a highly curated selection of books reflecting a diverse range of voices and stories. They will also bring books for middle-schoolers and adults! 

Instead of sending your child to the fair with cash or a credit card, buy a gift card for your child to use at the fair. You decide how much money to put on the card and we'll keep it at the register for them to use when they checkout (and they won't get lost!). Any cards with remaining balances are returned to families after the fair and those balances can be used at the store (the cards never expire!). Here's the link to get gift cards for your student(s) (make sure to scroll down to fill out the form).  

Parents are invited to shop before school & after school and students can also shop at recess & lunch. As always, teachers will be creating Wish Boxes for their classrooms. Any books you purchase will go directly to your teacher's class!

      SUPPORT OUR LIBRARIES! ALL PROCEEDS from the book fair will fund the North and South campus libraries.

      BOOK FAIR WEEK!  Open Monday 9/8 to Saturday, 9/13 for parents, siblings, and students before school (7:45-8:45 am) and after school (3-4 pm), and during recess/lunch for students. We will also be open during the Fall Family Dinner on Saturday 9/13 for families to visit.

     SET UP a GIFT CARD!  Parents can create a digital payment account and prepay any amount. Students can spend the gift card  amount at the book fair without going over the limit set by parents. Parents can also spend unused funds at the Linden Tree store.

     CLASSROOM WISH BOOKS!  Students love selecting and donating books to their classroom from their teachers’ wish boxes. Support your teacher by getting a book for your classroom. 

    SUPPORT OUR LIBRARIES AND A LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS!  As you shop for books for your student, for that next birthday party gift, or for your teachers, you can proudly know that not only are you supporting both the North AND South school libraries, but you're also supporting a family-owned small business too! Triple win!  

    VOLUNTEER! We can't do it without YOU! The book fairs (and libraries) are run by wonderful parent volunteers like you! Volunteers are needed to staff the book fair throughout the week. There are shifts before school, during recess and lunch, after school, and during the Fall Family Dinner. We also need help with set-up and tear-down. Find a shift or two that works with your schedule. Please SIGN UP TO VOLUNTEER. Thank you!!
