Save The Date!
Dear Limehouse Families,
Mark your calendars! The fun and excitement of a Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! To adapt to our changing needs, Scholastic has developed a Virtual Book Fair to provide an opportunity for our students and families to experience the joy of reading together. Proceeds from the Book Fair will go towards purchasing new resources for the school library!
So save the date! Our Scholastic Virtual Book Fair will take place on
Monday November 29 - Monday December 6th 2021.
All online orders will be shipped to the school free of charge and delivered before the holidays. Orders will be individually wrapped and sealed in an envelope with the family’s name on the front and sent home with the students. Arrangements can also be made with Mrs. Provost to pick up your orders after school by 3:30pm if needed.
