Dear PS 101 Families,
We’re excited to announce that our 2025 Scholastic Book Fair will be held at PS 101 from October 14 to October 21, 2025!
As part of the New York State Next Generation Learning Standards, all students are encouraged to read books at their appropriate reading level to build fluency and comprehension. The Book Fair is a great opportunity for students to purchase books for both personal enjoyment and educational assignments.
📚 Reading is one of the most important skills you can help nurture in your child.
Books are affordably priced, with some starting at just $4.00 plus tax.
📌 Important Notes:
- Sales tax will be applied to all purchases, in accordance with New York State regulations.
- No pennies will be used or accepted to make checkout easier and avoid lost or heavy change. All amounts will be rounded up, and the extra pennies collected will go toward future school events.
Below is a sample price chart to help you estimate how much to send with your child:
| Before Tax | After Tax | Rounded Up (Cash Only) |
| $1.00 | $1.09 | $1.10 |
