2025 Book Fair

 The Scholastic Book Fair is back!

What is the Book Fair?
For those new to Greenacres, our Book Fair brings bestselling books and newsletters right into the school. The Fair runs for three days each year, starting with an author visit on Election Day. During school hours, each class visits the Fair, and students may purchase books. Parents are welcome to join their children and volunteer during these visits.

2025 Book Fair Dates & Hours

• Tuesday, Nov. 4: 9:00 AM – 1:30 PM

• Wednesday, Nov. 5 & Thursday, Nov. 6: During normal school hours
  Location: OMPR

Author Visit
This year, bestselling author Sara Levine will join us on Election Day! Families are encouraged to attend her readings and interactive presentations. Sara’s books will be available for purchase, and she will sign copies after her presentations. Families can visit the Fair and purchase books even though school is closed on Election Day.

Why the Book Fair Matters
The Book Fair is a key PTA fundraiser. Proceeds help fund classroom materials, library books, and Scholastic newsletters. The more books purchased, the more support our school receives!
