• Bookfair

  The Parent's Association Book Fair invites book lovers to roam through thousands of books (and some media) for all ages. Visitors can choose from a large selection of recent and high quality works, as well as some antique and vintage books at terrific bargain prices. There is truly something for everyone at this sale. The Book Fair Chairs are responsible for the planning and implementation of the Book Fair, traditionally held in March. The chairs work with the PA President and School to schedule the Book Fair and publicize and promote the Book Fair through writing notices in the PrepWeekly, community newspapers, if possible, and posting signs in strategic areas such as in Montclair and in front of the school. Volunteers help to sort books into appropriate categories and set up and clean up the event in the spring.

• Hospitality

  The Hospitality Coordinators are responsible for the refreshments served at every Parents’ Association meeting and Live Talk meeting.

• Merchant Rewards

  The Merchant Rewards Coordinators publicize and promote parents’ use of merchants who provide rewards to the College Prep PA, and educate the College Prep community about the merchant rewards program and how to use it. Ideas to do so include occasional informational presentations, making sure information on the website is up to date, and creating flyers and other informational literature to share Tracks e-Scrip and merchant rewards earned, and reconciles them with the Treasurer’s record of automated bank deposits monthly.
