Strawbridge will be here on Wednesday October 28th for Fall Uniform Yearbook retake/absentee pictures. Only students who need retakes or were absent on the original picture day (8/26) will be photographed! This will be the last chance to be photographed for the yearbook!
📚📖We are excited to announce our upcoming Scholastic Book Fair!
The Book Fair is a great opportunity for students to build their home libraries and grow their love of reading. Best of all, every purchase helps support our school. This is always one of the students' favorite events!
Volunteers - The Book Fair would not be possible without our fabulous volunteers! We need helpers to assist students with making wish lists and shopping, serving as cashiers, and picking up restock orders. If you would like to assist with wish lists and shopping, you can sign up for the specific time your child's class will be attending. If you are interested in serving as a cashier, please email Mrs. Barnhill at ebarnhill@eastwakeacademy.org. This position requires a background check, so she will get you set up with that. It's a quick and easy process! If you or someone you know is available to volunteer, please see this SignUpGenius link.
Payment - You may send cash with your child or set up a Scholastic eWallet. If sending cash, please send paper bills. Students love to bring coins from their piggy banks, but this slows down the checkout process. eWallet is highly recommended as it is a safe and easy digital payment option that allows students to shop without carrying cash. Other family members or friends can also add money to your child's eWallet. To set up an eWallet for your child, visit https://www.scholastic.com/bf/eastwakeacademy.
Please note that we are required to charge Wake County sales tax (7.25%). If your child is paying with cash, please send the exact amount, including tax. If the exact amount is not available, the total will be rounded up to the nearest dollar, and the extra amount will be donated to our Media Center. For example, if the total is $5.35, it will be rounded to $6.00, and $0.65 will be donated. Because of this, eWallet is strongly encouraged.
Virtual Book Fair - You may also shop online through our Virtual Book Fair. Orders ship directly to your home, and there is free shipping on book orders over $25. Online purchases also support our school.
