A new voluntary library reading contest began November 1, 2010. It was called Battle of the Books and involved teams of 4 students. There were 9 teams signed up for this spelling bee style contest which was held in May. The challenge was to read 56 books and be prepared to answer a series of questions that would test their knowledge of the books and authors.
