Battle of the Books
The Local Battle of the Books has successfully ended this week. We are happy that students accomplished much from the experience and that they also had fun. I cannot thank the Primary teachers enough for encouraging their students to participate and keeping them focused for the months leading up to the competition.
Special thanks to Ms. Annie, Mr. Lewis, Mr. John for taking time out of your busy schedule to read questions and Ms. Zoobia. Ms. Laurie and Ms. Annie for bringing your classes to help cheer the Elementary finalists, as well as Ms. Sandy and Mr. Carl. This support has helped made all the finalists feel like champions!
