The Scholastic Book Fair is Coming to Sabal Point Elementary Very Soon!!!!

Dear Families,

Get ready—the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! This is a great opportunity to connect with your child over the thrill of bringing home new books to dive into again and again. Studies show that kids read more when they choose books for themselves. A love of independent reading boosts academic success, plus children who read more frequently also report improved mental health.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Book Fair:

Dates: 

September 8th - 11th, 2026

Location: 

Sabal Point Elementary Media Center

Nighttime Event: 

Thursday, September 10th  

Book Fair (5:30 - 7:30 PM)  

PTA MATH Night (6:30 - 7:30 PM) 

There’s even more info on our school’s Book Fair homepage:

Please be sure to set up a Book Fair eWallet, the digital payment account that allows your child to shop for books at the Fair without cash! eWallet account set up has begun as of August 14th!! 

Once you set up an eWallet for your child don't forget to share the link so friends and extended family can add funds.

When you fund an eWallet, you’ll have the opportunity to contribute to a giving initiative called "Share the Fair™. Your contributions directly support our students who need help buying books from the Fair.  

eWallet Sign Up can be accessed from our Book Fair Web site:
