Battle of the Books
Battle of the Books is a Quiz Bowl Style Competition for students in grades 3-12. Yes, it is a competition, but the purpose is to foster a love of reading! The goal of Battle of the Books is to teach students how to work together in a group for a common goal, expose them to award-winning pieces of literature, and encourage a high volume of reading inside and outside of the classroom. Check out photos of all our last years' participating teams!
Note: Not all competitions are offered at every school. Check with your school to see if these competitions are offered.
Final Logistics will be decided closer to the events date following health department guidelines.
