About the Reading Olympics...
Included in the event will be students of all reading levels (elementary, middle, high school) who have met the challenge of joining their teams in reading from the selected list of books. The students participate in a “book club” at their school throughout the school year in order to prepare for the competition. The majority of the titles on the book lists are already included in school and county libraries. The Reading Olympics book lists are listed on our school website.
