It’s time for our Scholastic Book Fair!
Wednesday, November 9 – Thursday, November 17, 2022
Open daily during regular school hours - *all students, grades k-8, will have the opportunity to shop during their weekly, scheduled library time*. Also open till 7:30 pm on Thursday, November 10 and 17 during elementary parent-teacher conferences.
Every dollar spent goes toward supporting our school library! IN PERSON: Cash, check, debit/credit cards accepted. Don’t forget about eWallets! Go to www.scholastic.com/fair to set up or replenish your accounts!
New this year: Due to changes in Ohio sales laws, all book fair purchases will now be charged sales tax. Please keep that in mind when sending money in with your student. For example, $10.00 will no longer be enough to purchase a $9.99 item. The total will now be $10.69.
Shop ONLINE: You can shop online from the convenience of home by going to www.scholastic.com/fair - Choose Milton-Union Elementary School or Milton-Union Middle School so that we get credit for your purchases! Every dollar spent online benefits our school fair, too!
You can support an eWallet for M-U to use at Milton-Union Schools. This will enable M-U to purchase books at the fair and foster a lifelong love of reading! You can contribute to the eWallet here: https://shop.scholastic.com/ewallet/fund?lang=en_US&walletId=ac269615-7022-4d46-8860-94e205c3b6d1

Good evening Bulldog Elementary Families.
Today your child should have brought home an envelope with information about the elementary fundraiser. Our students are selling products made right here in Ohio! Crossroads Candles, and home fragrance items and Coopers’ Mill jams and jellies, sauces, and fudge. Information about the fundraiser, prizes and how to register your child’s account for online purchases are on the large envelope. Please do not throw the envelope away. Any cash, checks and the order form will need to be returned in that envelope.
Checks must be made out to “Best Results”, not the school. Our fundraiser ends September 21st with order forms, cash and checks being turned in on the 22nd. Delivery of items will be on November 16th from 4-6pm.
