How the Book Fair comes together!

Just in case you are wondering. . . here's how we get ready for the book fair!

It starts with a delivery from the Scholastic warehouse in Nashville. In this case, it was on a snow day and Miss Delilah met the driver at the school and held the door while he brought everything in! There are 10 of those cases on wheels and numerous boxes!


Next, Miss Veda Cross and her helpers Miss Kim and Miss Delilah and 4 third grade boys who are very good at carrying tables start getting things arranged. The cases are opened first.

Then, all the boxes are placed on the tables and books removed and put in order.
Finally, the fair is ready for the students. The work for Miss Cross is just beginning. She will be arriving early each day and staying late each afternoon for the next week to keep the book fair open. She also will spend her Saturday here tomorrow remaining open so that families may attend the fair together.


Today students got a chance to preview the fair and check out all the merchandise. The book fair will be open Saturday from 9-1 and each day from 7:30-3:30. Come by and check it out. There are some great selections and on Saturday you may register for a drawing Miss Cross will be having for some free books.
