Good afternoon Arrowwood Families,

Thank you to everyone who has already assisted with our fall fundraiser. The school is already about to the half way mark of our fundraiser goal. Paper orders will need to be returned by October 4th to school but can be submitted until October 7th online. Through this fundraising the PTO has been able to add additional technology, playground additions, Hartley scholarships, and more for the Eagles. If you have any questions about the fundraiser, please contact the Arrowwood PTO at arrowwoodPTO@stcs.org.

Don't forget that this week the Saginaw Arts Museum hosts Arrowwood on October 3rd. This is a great opportunity to see some amazing art and learn more about their programs.

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. And fostering a love of independent reading leads to a wide variety of benefits—including academic success and improved mental health. Here’s everything you need to know about the Book Fair:

Dates: October 8 - 11 from 7:30 am till 3:30 pm, Half days until 11:30am and during Parent Teacher Conferences

Location: Arrowwood Library

Link to shop online: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/arrowwoodelementaryschool

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. Then share your eWallet 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.

Many of us still remember the rush of finding the perfect book at a Scholastic Book Fair. I hope you’ll join your child at our school’s Fair and share a reading experience they’ll remember forever.

Happy reading!
