Battle of the Books

RVMS Battle of the Books

 

The LMC @ Ranch View Middle School will be hosting Battle of the Books (BoB) during the 2nd semester.

The purpose of a Battle of the Books is to encourage reading through a friendly, quick-action, competition.  Teams of five students compete against each other in a quiz-bowl-type competition.   Students and Librarians across the district will create the questions for the battle as they are reading the books.  The winning teams (up to two) from Ranch View will compete against the following middle schools: 

Castle Rock | Cimarron | Cresthill | Mesa | Mountain Ridge | Ranch View | Rocky Heights | Sagewood | Sierra
