Scholastic Book Clubs - There is now a new, convenient way for
you to place
your book club orders - online. You can see an expanded selection
of books,
software, and learning materials. You pay by credit card, so
there's no need
to write a check or send cash to school. You can order anytime
right up
until
the online order due date. You'll receive an email confirmation
of your
order. To access it, go to the web address below and enter the
class user
name and password I set up. Your child will have this information
in their
agenda book.
