Somerset’s Scholastic Book Fair

Somerset’s Scholastic Book Fair is going online! November 30 – December 13

In a year of so many *not* normal things, our book fair will also be different this year. Somerset is partnering with Scholastic to host an ONLINE ONLY book fair for families this fall.

Mrs. Bravenec realizes that for some families, the ability to buy books for your children may not be possible this year. In conversations with students about the Book Fair, Mrs. Bravenec is sensitive to this situation and shares with students that as a child her family sometimes had hard times and was not able to buy books. Somerset families do not have to buy anything, and that is totally OK.
 
If you plan to give books as holiday gifts, please consider shopping as early as possible beginning Nov 30th, as shipping takes 7-10 business days.
 
Click this Link to preview books and shop online (the shopping link will NOT appear until Nov 30th)

All virtual Math Kangaroo participants will receive a T-shirt and a gift straight to their home addresses and can take the test at home.

In case the in-person center is closed due to pandemic, students will be transferred to our online platform to take the test. Please register Here for Washington Virtual Center. 

The regular registration fee is $21 between Sep 15 and Dec 15. A late registration fee is $35 between Dec 16 and Dec 31
