Scholastic Book Fair

Join us for a world of imagination at our Annual Book Fair! PS 185's Annual Book Fair will be held on November 13th and 14th

Please check out our book fair homepage! Here you can preview the selection of books Scholastic will offer as well as set up your child with an e-wallet fund they can use when they shop. This is not required - we will accept cash and CC payments as well. However this option means your child doesn't need to bring cash with them when they visit the fair. We will be able to look them up by their name to check them out. Please note any $ your child doesn't spend at the fair will stay in your Scholastic account and you can use it to shop online at a later date or for next year's fair.

If you are able, we welcome donations to our general school e-wallet! This helps cover the cost of tax for kids who are a little short at the register. We really appreciate your support!

eWallet Setup Dates: Tuesday, Oct 22 - Thursday, Nov 14

Students can shop without cash thanks to Book Fair eWallet. Teachers can use eWallet to build their classroom libraries.
