My Project

My high school's reading bowl team is excited to start reading and preparing for the 2025-2026 competition! This contest allows readers to demonstrate their knowledge of 20 pre-selected books through a competitive quiz bowl format. We already have access to five of the books and just need 15 additional novels to complete the set.

Reading bowl not only encourages reading for pleasure but also fosters teamwork, collaboration, and leadership skills among participating students.

The first step to building a successful reading bowl team is getting copies of the books. Once reading bowl competition seasion is over, the books will be added to the school library collection so that all of our 1,100+ students can check them out.
