📚✨ The Book Fair is NEXT WEEK! ✨📚

🗓️ October 13–16
📍 Vega Elementary Library

Make Book Fair shopping easy with a Scholastic eWallet! 💳📚

An eWallet allows your student to have money available for the Book Fair without sending cash to school. It’s easy to set up and gives your student the freedom to choose the books they want to read!

💛 NOTE —any money added to an eWallet that is not spent by your student will be donated to purchase new books for the Vega Library! 📚

Ready to set up an eWallet? Visit the Scholastic Book Fair site: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/vegaelementaryschool2


Help us put more great books into the hands of our students—and on the shelves of our library! 🖤💛

Looks like the Vega Longhorns have been getting a little attention from Press Pass Sports! 👀🤘 We would be remiss if we didn’t give a shoutout to a couple of our athletes who have landed in the Press Pass Top 10 over the first few weeks of the season!

⭐ Week 1 Top 10 – Omar Segovia, Sr.
Omar was a huge part of our 32-28 victory over Clarendon. He carried the ball 20 times for 160 yards and scored four touchdowns while also recording 10 tackles on defense.

⭐ Week 4 Top 10 – Kasyn Fetterman, Soph.
Kasyn helped lead the Longhorns to an incredible comeback victory over Sudan, overcoming a 12-0 deficit to win 35-32. He finished the night 8-of-13 passing for 334 yards and four touchdowns, added 40 rushing yards and another touchdown, and helped Vega move to 4-0 for the first time since 2015!

We are proud of the way these young men are representing Vega High School and Vega Longhorn Football! Congratulations, Omar and Kasyn! Keep putting in the work! 🤘🖤💛
