How it works
1
Before the fair, students bring home a catalog with pricing examples. Look through it together and set a budget, including sales tax.
2
Each class visits the fair at its own shop time. The fair may not carry every book in the catalog, and it has extra titles that aren’t listed.
3
Books ordered online through the catalog arrive at school the week after the fair.
Every student is welcome at the Book Fair. For financial assistance, contact Ms. Chandonnet at Nchandonnet@schools.nyc.gov. Any other questions: bookfair@andersonpta.org.
Help run the Book Fair
Volunteers are needed all week, from setup to the final cleanup — including some heavy lifting to load the truck at the end.
