Here’s everything else you need to know about the Book Fair:   Dates: November 18 to 21, 2025 Location: Van Wert Media Center Families: You are invited to shop during with your child during your child’s activity time. See schedule below.  For full details and to create an eWallet, visit our school’s Book Fair homepage: https://www.scholastic.com/bf/vanwertelementaryschool6  More than ever, we need to get students reading.
