Battle of the Books!

Help me give my students books for our Battle of the Books Club!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Trass's classroom raised $680

This project is fully funded

My Project

Books, books, and more books! Our students can't get enough books in their hands! Our school is excited to announce that we will be hosting our third year of Battle of the Books. These students will read sixteen books and then compete in a competition where their knowledge of the books will be tested.

This project will help to fund five of the sixteen books that our students will need to prepare for the Battle of the Books competition.

They will read books from a variety of genres exposing them to a vast amount of literature over a short period of time. Thank you for considering a donation to our project!
