Dear Parents, Teachers, Students, Staff, Administration, and Community,
Thank you so very much for making our Spring 2022 Book Fair a huge success. Several books were donated to classroom libraries, students at HES have new books in their hands to read, and several students won posters and books in contests and drawings. Thanks also to Dr. Gary Pillow for bringing his new book Roonerspisms to our fair and giving his time to sign copies. It made my heart sing to see and feel the excitement the Book Fair generated from both students and adults alike. It couldn't have been done without the help of each and every one of you! THANK YOU for your support! ❤
