Help give my students access to this year's Battle of the Books titles for this year's competition! Each year, 7th and 8th grade students come together to compete with their peers and answer questions on the books they have read on the program list.
Having multiple titles available for students to read will allow them to participate in book clubs and encourage them to have fun while working towards competing with their peers at the end of the year battle!
Each of members of the Battle of the Books club brings a unique perspective to their small group book club as they discuss books across all genres. Students encourage and challenge one another to try new genres and share an ongoing conversation about books and reading.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
