Each year North Lamar campuses partner with Scholastic Book Fairs® to help foster a lifelong love of reading. Students from pre-kindergarten through high school and their families are given the opportunity to shop for books and educational products at an affordable price, helping to bridge the gap between home and education.
Librarians and parent volunteers work with Scholastic Book Fair® representatives to organize these weeklong events at school, where children can peruse and purchase their favorite books. Scholastic delivers the fair with books already arranged in mobile, easy-to-access cases. Books are displayed face-front and grouped by age or grade-level making it easy for kids to find characters and subjects they love and want to read about. This helps create an exciting shopping environment for students and parents.
North Lamar campuses host weekly Scholastic Book Fairs® twice a year, one in the fall and another in the spring. A new assortment of books are offered each season and include the latest award-winners and most popular books, often exclusive to the book fairs. At the end of a book fair week, schools are awarded either a percentage of the revenue or books and educational materials for their libraries. Look for an opportunity to shop a book fair and help a child learn to love reading.
