We are excited to announce our annual Book Battle event!
How it works:
Students read the listed books and take a comprehensive test at the end of January. The highest scorers for each grade will then participate in a final quiz-show style competition in front of their classmates.
Parents are welcome and encouraged to participate in the reading and discussion of these books with their children.
