The Scholastic Book Fair
Dear Parents and Families:
Get ready! The Scholastic Book Fair is coming our way. Our HPA book fair, will take place from November 14th to November 18th, 2022 in Building A-Family Room. Due to after school activities, all scholastic book fair sales will only occur during lunch/advisory times. The Family Room is not very large. To prevent overcrowding, this is our sales schedule:
• Monday, November 14 sales are open high school. Middle School will PREVIEW. • Tuesday, November 15 sales are open to 6th grade.
• Wednesday, November 16 sales are open to 7th grade.
• Thursday, November 17 sales are open to 8th grade.
Friday, November 18th sales are once again open to EVERYONE, including high schoolers.

This year, if you wish, say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet—your child’s digital payment account. Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Anyone can contribute! Share each child’s eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give your kids more books to enjoy.
If you can’t make it to the Fair, then shop at our school’s Online Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.
Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/highpointacademyfortworth
The countdown to more book joy is on! Catch you at the Fair!
Happy reading,
Ashley Deason and Craig Shreckengast
