Community Discussion: The Anxious Generation

THE ANXIOUS GENERATION 

Join us for an engaging, parent-led discussion on Jonathan Haidt’s groundbreaking book, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness. Haidt explores how the rise of smartphones and social media has profoundly impacted children’s mental health—and what we can do to reverse course. It’s never too early to start thinking about how you’ll approach social media and smartphone usage with your kids. According to Common Sense Media, approximately 31% of children aged 8–12 use social media. This discussion is relevant whether you have elementary, middle, or high school students.

🔷 No need to read the book! See registration page for links to a <1 hour pre-watch/listen

Book Fair

Everything to Know about the 2024 Scholastic Book Fair at Chestnutwold

Mark your calendars! This year the Scholastic Book Fair will run from Monday, December 2nd through Friday, December 6th.

Your child will tour the fair during their library time and will have the opportunity to purchase books. Kindergarten classes will also have the opportunity to shop during the school day. There will also be two family nights, Tuesday, December 3rd, and Thursday, December 5th, from 6:00 to 7:30pm.

HERE ARE WAYS YOU CAN GET READY FOR THE FAIR AND SUPPORT LITERACY AND STEAM AT CHESTNUTWOLD:

HOW TO PAY AT THE BOOK FAIR

  • Cash is always accepted at the Book Fair: Please send cash in an envelope marked with your child’s name and homeroom the week of the book fair.

  • eWallets: If you would like your child to go cashless to the book fair, eWallets are available. Please note that funds placed on eWallets are not refunded if they are not used at the fair, but they can be used for future purchases through your scholastic account.

    • After the Book Fair, unused eWallet funds will convert to an eGift card balance. Families can use eGift cards to shop online in The Scholastic Store, fund an eWallet for a future fair, or contribute to the Book Fairy fund.

    • If you had an eWallet last year, check if you still have funds from last year. If you would like, you can apply them to your new eWallet account for this year.

    • This year, student eWallet balances less than $1.50 may be used to help other students who may be a little short on change for their purchase. If you wish to opt out of this, please email tracydoney@gmail.com before Monday December 2, 2024.

    • For more information on eWallets, visit https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/content/fairs/ewallet.html 

  • Credit cards are also an option, but only for adults at parent night or during volunteer time.
