The 5th and 6th grade Prairie Pirates held their Battle of the Books in the cafeteria Wednesday, March 19. The groups were a mix of 5th and 6th graders and they were responsible for reading their novels during the 3rd quarter so they had the knowledge to answer the questions posed today! It was an epic battle today and Team L.E.A.P.S., prevailed in the end. Their team name consisted of the first letter in their names- Lillia Kaschmitter, Eli Duman, Ally McCoy, Payton Heimbigner, and Shyann Meyers with the Battle of the Books trophy! Congratulations to them and all the teams that participated! Photo by Jon Rehder. Click on the photo for a larger view.
