I’m so sorry this is late in getting posted. The final battles were exciting, breathtaking, and fierce! We were so proud of all our schools and so amazed at their knowledge! The students who battle often know more than the teacher….

 

The results of the evening were:

3rd/4th Grade: (Semi-Finals)

Core Knowledge (53) v. Frontier Valley (48)

5th/6th Grade: (Semi-Finals)

Rennissance (57) v. Pioneer (33)

 

In the final battles for 3rd/4th grade, the two schools facing off were:

3rd/4th Grade: (Finals)

Core Knowledge (45) v. Buffalo Ridge (48)

The battle ended with Buffalo Ridge victorious! Congratulations!

 

Final battles for 5th/6th grade saw two other schools facing each other on the field of battle:

5th/6th Grade: (Finals)

Acres Grees (54) v. Renaissance (30)

Acres Green was victorious!

 

Congratulations to all our schools! It is a great accomplishment to make it through Battle of the Book and to the “Final Battle”. Thanks again to our parents, school coaches, librarians, administrators, teachers, and everyone else who helps make this program successful. We could not do it without you! We hope to see you all again in the 2013-2014 season! If you have any questions please contact your branch coodinator or Kerri Morgan.

Congratulations to all our teams it was wonderful!
