My Project

Hello! We love our Battle of the Books teams! Their hard work and reading dedication set them apart from their classmates. They must put their memory and teamwork to the test to read 12 books and master trivia questions about them. This program has students competing against many other students at a state level.

By fundraising for copies of these books, our club funding can be used to purchase other items, like microphones and team prizes for hosting other teams at our regional competition.

Investing in our teams today will guarantee continued growth in Battle of the Books participation across the state!
