DSPS Update

Scholastic Book Fair

Everyone is invited to attend our Book Fair being held in the library from Monday December 4^th to Friday December 8^th. It is a great opportunity to purchase new books and at the same time support our library. For every $10 spent at the Book Fair, up to $6 goes back to our school. This allows us to purchase new books and build our library collection. The Fair will be open Monday to Thursday from

9:10 am to 12:40 pm and from 2:00 pm to 3:20 pm for classroom visits. A newsletter with a schedule of classroom visits and a preview flyer will be sent home with students on Friday. Mrs. Tompkins-London is looking forward to seeing everyone at this exciting literacy event!
