Elementary Schools District Battle of the Books
 
Six Harnett County elementary schools competed at the District Battle of the Books competition, held at Triton High School on Thursday.
 
Battle of the Books is a voluntary reading incentive program. Participants read prescribed books and practice to prepare for competition. Students compete by displaying their understanding of the selected books. In a tournament setting, competitors are challenged to practice rapid recall to match titles and authors to facts associated with the books.
 
There were 15 rounds of intense competition, with only one question to separate the 1st place winners from 2nd and 3rd!
 
Congratulations to all the participants and winners of the 2023 District Battle of the Books!
 
1st Place: LaFayette Elementary School
2nd Place: Highland Elementary School
3rd Place: Boone Trail Elementary School 
 
Best of luck to LaFayette as they represent Harnett County Schools at the Regional Battle of the Books Competition in Raleigh!
 
We appreciate all of the teams, coaches, and volunteers for making this event a huge success.
