Merrick-Moore will be having their Fall Book Fair the first week of December.  Please save a few hard-earned dollars to buy books that week.  It will pay off in the long run!  Did you know that an adult with poor literacy skills earns about $550 less per week than an adult with excellent literacy skills? Studies by the National Assessment of Educational Progress have consistently found that the more reading material available in the home, the better students’ reading levels are likely to be.   At the Fall Book Fair, for just a few dollars, families will be able to purchase popular, good quality literature.

The Book Fair runs from Monday December 1st to Friday December 5th.  Please come out to visit us and spend a few dollars for the future.  See you there!

Fifth graders are VERY enthusiastic about the Elementary Battle of the Books (EBOB) competition this year! Forty-five eager students showed up for the first meeting! Only 12 students are allowed to compete on the team, so the competition will be stiff. Good luck to all Merrick-Moore tigers!

This year’s list of books is:
