ANNANDALE, Va. — The Mason Crest Elementary Spring Scholastic Book Fair will be held during the week of March 9-12 in the Mason Crest Elementary School Library from 4 – 5 pm daily and online from March 4 – 24. The book fair is an opportunity to buy carefully selected, quality books and products at affordable prices and it gets our students and our community excited about reading.

“When you support our book fair you are helping raise money so the PTO can support Mason Crest’s classrooms and teachers needs,” said Christy Fase, the 2015 Spring Book Fair coordinator. “This year we are excited to be able to offer an on-line Book Fair as well as our in-house Book Fair. You can tell your out-of-town family and friends about this opportunity to provide books for your children while raising money to buy books and classroom equipment for our school.”

The online book fair will be available from March 4 until March 24 at bookfairs.scholastic.com/homepage/masoncrestelementary. 

Families are also invited to attend the Ice Cream Social and Bedtime Stories Read By Mrs. Kerr and Mr. Butler on Wednesday, March 11 from 6 – 8 pm at the school.

ANNANDALE, Va. — On Nov. 14, the Mason Crest Elementary Parent / Teacher Organization  and the Mason Crest Elementary School faculty and staff will host a fun run for the students of Mason Crest Elementary. The theme of the fun run is “Many Countries, One Community,” and each Mason Crest Elementary School class has selected a country to “run across” as part of emphasizing the diverse backgrounds and heritage that Mason Crest Elementary brings together.

This event will serve as the Mason Crest PTO’s  major fundraiser for the year. In order to make it a success, the PTO is asking for volunteers to help us with various tasks before and during the event.  If you can and are willing to help, please visit our volunteer signup page at masoncrestpto.org. For additional information about the fun run contact Kim Grutzik at kim.grutzik@masoncrestpto.org or Tim Sample at tim.sample@masoncrestpto.org.
