The Mayor’s Back to School Fair is Friday, Aug. 4, at the Centennial Building at Fair Park, and the event will once again provide a one-stop-shop complete with all the back-to-school basics.
Parents and children can find everything they need to prepare for the school year – from free school supplies for Dallas schoolchildren (who meet eligibility requirements); to free health, dental and vision screenings; to immunizations and haircuts; plus the latest information on education, health and social services. The Fair also will feature musical entertainment, kids activities, games, interactive demos and more. Eligible families with pre-K and elementary school students also will receive a colorful backpack at the Fair.
