• Families are welcome to shop with students during their scheduled class time. We love seeing you there and sharing in the excitement of choosing new books together.

Support Our Classrooms at the Book Fair!

Looking for a way to support your child’s teacher during the Book Fair? Consider contributing to their Teacher eWallet!

We are no longer using physical classroom wish lists. Instead, teachers are given the opportunity to thoughtfully select the books and materials that best meet the needs and interests of their students and classroom library.

When you contribute to a Teacher eWallet, you are giving teachers the flexibility to choose exactly what their students need most. This may include high-interest series, diverse titles, replacements for well-loved favorites, or curriculum connections.

It is an easy way to make a big impact on your child’s classroom!

Thank you for supporting our teachers and growing our readers!

The Book Fair is almost here!

Get ready by setting up your child’s eWallet, making a shopping plan, and signing up to volunteer. We can’t wait to see you there!

Thank you for supporting reading at Rainbow!

Class Full of Rocket Readers!

Every single student in Mrs. Baker’s first-grade class has completed a Rocket Readers Book Challenge, and we could not be prouder! 🚀💫

A huge shout-out to Mrs. Baker, who has gone above and beyond to support her readers. With choral reading, engaging reading centers, and even checking out extra books from the public library, she has been an amazing partner in helping her students meet their literacy goals. ❤️📖

And to the students: WOW! Your hard work, excitement, and dedication to reading are out of this world. Keep shining, Rocket Readers. The sky is just the beginning! 🌟🚀
