My Project

OBOB stands for Oregon Battle of the Books! In Oregon, students all over the state compete to show what they know about the books they have read. Students form teams within their schools, across grades if they choose, and work together to train to battle against other teams in their schools, regions, and then their state. One team of ours just made it to regionals this year.

We need your help with the funds to buy the books so we can start preparing our students now for next year!

My goal this year is to get the books ASAP so students can start reading now and over the summer to be better prepared for next year.

My school is special because 420 of our 450 students come from families who live in poverty and they cannot purchase the books on their own. So, we would love your support!
