The Waggoner book fair is twice a year and is a chance for your child to shop at school for amazing books.

The 2024-2025 Book Fairs are scheduled for:

**September 9th-13th.  It will be open during Parent-Teacher conferences on Thursday evening.

**February 26-March 1st - It will be open during Parent-Teacher conferences.

Our school reading area is magically transformed into a bookstore with books for all ages! The Book Fair is open to students during lunch recess and to families one hour after school.

Here are some things to know about Phoenix Book Company's bookfair: 

· Most books are 20-60% off the retail price.

· PBC provides round pricing which means tax is included in the price. You pay the sticker price, nothing more!

· This is a cash fair. There are no e-Wallets.

· Book Fair flyers will go home prior to the Bookfair with an envelope for student shopping money.

· Teacher Wish List Books will be available for purchase as well as PBC Bucks (gift cards) in $5 increments. 

· There will be daily games and opportunities to win prizes by donating to our school library.

If you'd like to volunteer, we would appreciate your help!

This school year, all t-shirts will be PRESALE!  $15/shirt

ORDERS DUE by Curriculum Night, Wednesday, August 7th.

Samples of the shirt style will be available in the Reading area on Meet the Teacher night: July 22nd 5pm-630pm.

Per community feedback; this year's shirt will be softer and fit better. These types of comfortable shirts cost more, so the price is $15/shirt.

Presale allows you to select the sizes you need for you and your family without the worry of those particular sizes selling out. It will also prevent the PTO being left with 100+ leftover shirts.  This is a win-win for the entire Waggoner Community.

We are looking forward to everyone wearing their REACH FOR THE STARS shirt this School Year!
