My Project

The books requested for this project will allow more students to participate in a district wide Name that Book competition. This will allow students to read more widely and diversely than ever before. The list of books were taken from Texas state award winners lists to represent the lives and values of Texas teens.

Our school Name that Book team has been a dedicated bunch who have worked together to make sure the Name that Book competition still happened this year after the Library Services department that normally runs the competition was significantly reduced.

This group of students want to continue to promote literacy, reading for fun, and healthy competition for all high school students. These books will be temporarily added to the school library catalog for this school year, and each participant of the team will get to choose at least one of these books to keep as part of their reward for their year of hard work.
