Sawtooth Mountain PTA hosts book fair




The School District 166 Parent Teacher Association (PTA) is hosting a Scholastic Book Fair Monday, Feb. 24 through Thursday, Feb. 27 from 3:00 – 6:30 p.m. each day.

PTA spokesperson Sue Prom said, “Funds raised at the Book Fair will help purchase books for the media center, classroom libraries and students. Families, faculty, and the community are invited to attend this fun reading event.”

Visit the science room in Sawtooth Elementary School to shop for specially priced books and educational products, including children’s classics, award-winning titles, new releases, interactive software, adult bestsellers, and other great reads from more than 100 publishers.

Prom said Book Fair customers may also help the school build classroom libraries and improve children’s reading skills by purchasing books through the Classroom Wish List.

The North Shore Federal Credit Union donates a book to each student in the elementary school at each of the two Book Fairs held each year by the PTA. They have helped put thousands of books in the hands of our students over the years. “Be sure to thank them for their support of our school,” said Prom.
