Good evening,
Tomorrow we begin our Battle of the Books semi-final competition. Next Thursday we will have a final battle in the library. And next Friday, we will have a celebration luncheon together to celebrate our hard work. Students will also have the opportunity to debrief on their experience and feedback on how to make the competitions better.
