It’s an evening full of fun and learning for everyone... students can even enter in a raffle to win prizes. Registration will open 12/1.

Literati Holiday Sale!

 

This year Brayton will be using a new vendor, Literati, for our spring book fair in March.  Unlike scholastic, Literati is not a publishing house, so they can offer a more diverse assortment of authors and titles from different publishers.  As an introduction to Literati, we sent their holiday catalogs home with the students last week.  Parents can use the QR code on the catalog or this link and make an account connected to Brayton School and shop for books.  All online purchases will give 10% back to Brayton. 

Please contact us if you have any questions.  Thanks!
Amanda McConnon, Andrea Mullan and Lauren Blumenstein
