Champs!!!

Our Battle of the Books teams competed in Marshalltown on Wednesday, April 24 against the other top 16 Battle of the Books teams in the state. After three preliminary rounds, The Prologue (battle of the books team) was tied for 4th place moving into the final round. They were able to secure the 4th place position based on their earlier written tie breaker essay and after competing WON THE ENTIRE CONTEST! 

As a result, they won PJH a full set of next years books, an awesome first place poster, a signed copy of The Words We Keep from Erin Stewart as well as a private zoom after the contest. 

We would also like to recognize the second PJH team that made it to this contest, The Epilogue. They were only three points behind The Prologue after the preliminary rounds and we are so proud of their hard work all year. These kids have read from a list of 25 books and answered 70 questions on Wednesday, April 24. That is a lot of reading and remembering. Congrats to all of these students who were involved!!!
