Calling all 9th graders who love to read….

Join our Battle of the Books team and read high quality literature while indulging your competitive side……

Our team will meet on Fridays in Mrs. McCabe’s room (Room 7) to practice and prepare for our preliminary rounds in March.

If we make it past the preliminary rounds, we will be invited to the statewide competition on April 22nd, 2020 in Marshalltown, Iowa.

But a lot has to happen between now and then…… we have to read, read, read………discuss, discuss, discuss, all while enjoying award winning literature for teens and young adults!

Attend an informational meeting on Friday, December 13th in Mrs. McCabe’s room during Tiger Time to get all of your questions answered!

 Holmes Junior High Student Council's meeting for today has been moved to Thursday during Tiger Time in the FCS kitchen.  See you there.

There will be no lunch choir rehearsal during Tiger Time today. We will rehearse like normal during your lunch shifts.
