Battle of the Books
The first KISD Elementary School Battle of the Books was held at Bette Perot Elementary School, on Tuesday, Feb. 16, at 6PM. Florence had two competition teams participating. The Fantastic Flying Falcons: Catherine Guillot, Isabelle Valcarcel Bryan, Dhyan Patel, and Ryan Meredith and the 4 Feisty Falcons: Tatum Balli, Abby Oltmanns, Nash Giles, and Shree Upadhyaya. Both teams did a great job. The 4 Feisty Falcons placed 3rd in the competition. Congratulations to both teams!!!
There are 21 participants in the "Battle of the Books" who have been reading this year. They will continue to read throughout the rest of the year. In May, 5 teams will compete at our FES Battle of the Books.
Thanks to Ann Lallande, our librarian, for providing this opportunity!
