Falkener Scholastic Book Fair

We will be hosting a Scholastic Book Fair in the Media Center next week from Monday, April 19th - Friday, April 23rd during school hours. We will help students shop during the week while we take our precautions for COVID-19 - students will preview the Book Fair through digital resources in their classrooms and shoppers will be asked to point out their choices and we will show them the books and items to keep our Book Fair low touch.

Please be on the look out for a flyer coming home with your student or check out the digital flyer here.

Would you rather shop online? The Falkener online Scholastic Book Fair is open for shopping April 11th - April 24th! Please check out our online Book Fair here.

Looking forward to seeing what exciting new books Scholastic has for this spring!

Grab-No-Go Meals at Falkener

Starting Sept. 1, the process to pick-up student meals will look different than it has since March, when the pandemic closed schools across the country.
Meals will now be available on a “grab and go” basis from 11 a.m. to noon, Monday-Friday, at all GCS schools. You do not have to go to the school(s) your children attend to pick-up meals, which include lunch and breakfast for the following day.
