Hello! We are getting ready for our annual school book fair. When people purchase during our bookfair week, all purchases support our school goal and lends to our schools “scholastic dollars” to buy books for our classrooms. This year I wanted to provide a link so that people can purchase books for family or friends (and support Willow Creek School) without even coming into the building! This link will be live from November 2-November 9th! https://scholastic.com/bf/willowcreekschool1

Make sure to put our Veterans’ Day Program on your calendar! Nov. 11th @ 9:00 AM @ the Willow Creek School. Everyone welcome!
