Battle of the Books- In grades 2-5 we offer children a chance to show their reading smarts!  We have a quiz show where the children read a specified list of books and then take a test to qualify to be on a team.  The teams battle it out in a game like atmosphere that is tons of fun.  Each grade level has a different set of books they need to read and take AR tests on.  2nd grade read Fairy Tales and do not take AR tests for the Battle.  This program is optional for students.  Click below for a list of the books for each grade level. 2nd Grade Battle will take place in March and the rest will all take place in May!  Encourage your kids to read and be on the Battle team!
