Honor Roll
The Honor Roll tradition dates back to the first Battle of the Books meets held in 1981. Traditionally, all teams with the top five highest scores have their names added to the Battle of the Books Honor Roll. In 2024, exciting changes were made to the program! Battle of the Books is played by 4th and 5th graders every winter.
