The CCM Book Fair was held September 4th and 5th. Thank you to everyone who helped make the Scholastic Book Fair successful. We sold nearly $2,000 worth of books. Several books were purchased for teachers’ Wish Lists. Even more books will be purchased using Scholastic Dollars earned during the Fair.
Many thanks to all who are so faithful with clipping those little Box Top coupons! The latest tally is complete...1250 Box Tops! Plus, we received a good number of Box Top coupons. When you add this submission in with the others since our last check, Chris Whitehead is expecting our December check to be over $350.00!
