| Scholastic Book Order |

Scholastic book order forms will be coming home
each month with your child. You have the optional
opportunity to order quality books at great prices.
The school earns points for these orders which we
trade in for free books or school equipment. We also
provide the option of online ordering. There are
several added benefits to online
ordering and it's easy! Follow the steps from the link
below and pay with a credit card. (User Name:
MSCK, Password: bookorder.) We can still accept
order
forms at the school as well. Simply fill in the order
form on the back and return it to the school by the
due date. Please, make your checks payable to
Scholastic. The books arrive about 2 weeks after
the due date. You will receive one book order form
per month.
