The preferred payment method is on E-Wallet ~ an easy way to let your kids purchase items at the Book Fair without worrying about sending cash or a blank check to school. If you had an E-wallet balance from the fall, it is now a gift card balance. You can log into your Scholastic account and transfer it back to an E-wallet. Sales tax will be collected.
