Congratulations to our Grand Prize Treasure Chest winner - Carter. The Book Blast is going strong as we approach these last few days of the event. It’s not too late to complete your Treasure Map, earn your prizes, and help your child’s teacher earn a shopping spree to purchase books and supplies for the classroom! When 60% of the classroom students register and invite 10+ friends and family members, that teacher will earn a $100 classroom shopping spree. If ALL the classroom students invite 10+ friends and family members, the teacher will earn a $200 classroom shopping spree. Visit https://app.booksarefun.com/HighlandES63452 to participate!
