Battle of the Books is a huge success at Century Middle

Adams 12 District Battle of the Books was a huge success! Parents, teachers and students from Century, Prospect Ridge, Silver Hills, Thornton and Westlake Middle Schools met at Century to battle over a list of books that they had all been reading and studying over the year. The competition consisted of three rounds of multiple choice questions about the books through Kahoot! These students showed perseverance and clearly enjoyed the competition and camaraderie of getting together for this battle. Century did a wonderful job hosting this event where they finished in third place, Prospect Ridge finished in second place and Westlake was the 1st place winner! Westlake received a new traveling banner that will be hung up at the winning middle school for a year. Next year, it will be up for grabs again. What a great opportunity to share and read great books together!
