Each year, the PTB sponsors two Scholastic Book Fairs at Bartlett Elementary. In addition to generating excitement about books and reading, the book fairs earn credits towards free books for our school and classroom libraries and raise money that is used to fund PTB programs and supply funds to our school.

For a few days, the school library is transformed into a mini-bookstore where students (and their parents!) can browse through a broad variety of books and pick some special ones to add to their home libraries. Students visit the book fair during the school day. Parents are invited to shop the Book Fair during school hours or the evening Book Fair.

Can you help?

The PTB needs parent volunteers to help make this event a success! Please considering volunteering for a couple of hours with setup of displays, decorating, assistance during your child's classroom visit or take down.

To sign-up, use our fast and easy online volunteer form or return the paper form sent home with students.
