May PTA Meeting Tuesday, May 7th at 6:30 pm
At the May PTA meeting we will discuss general PTA business, and hold elections for next year's executive board.
Childcare provided by SKEF. Hope to see you there!
Every year we host two Scholastic Book Fairs in the school gym. These book fairs offer a wide variety of books for all reading levels and interests. The proceeds from our book fair sales are invested back into Candalaria.
Our Spring Book Fair is scheduled for April 29th - May 3rd. Each day the fair is open before school 8:30-9:05 am and after school 3:30-4:30 pm. We will also be open during Ice Cream and the Arts on Wednesday the 1st from 6-8 pm.
Teacher bins are an important feature of our Candalaria book fairs. The bins contain books selected by your child's teacher that they would like in their classroom library. If you purchase a book for a teacher, you receive a 20% discount on the purchase.
If you don't know what books to buy for your child, our teachers also select books they recommend. Look for signs on the shelves that say "teacher pick" and you will know which teacher has made the recommendation. These teacher picks are usually the first to sell out at our fairs.
If you can't make it to the fair, you can shop our Online Fair.
Thank you for supporting the book fair!
Wednesday, May 1st is Ice Cream & the Arts!
Classroom art projects will be hanging in the halls for viewing, and ice cream will be available in the cafeteria. The Book Fair will also be open in the gym from 6-8 pm.
In honor of Teacher Appreciation Day, we would like to tell the Candalaria teachers and staff
"THANK YOU"
for your hard work and dedication in educating our children. Words are not enough to express our gratitude.
It's not too late to purchase a Memory Book that your child will enjoy for a lifetime. Order forms are in the office, and the cost is just $14 per book. Thanks to PTA sponsorship, 5th graders can get a book for just $5! Quantities are limited, so get yours now!
