Battle of the Books

The statewide Battle of the Books program is designed to promote a love of reading among our students. It encourages students to read a variety of books and remember information about the plots, characters, and settings of the books. Every question asked in a battle is answered by the title and author of the book and takes the form of: Name the book in which a horse and a boy are stranded on an island. It is a fun, academic-based competition that has been very successful in school districts throughout the state in encouraging students to read.

Peer Mediation

Peer Mediators are a small number of student leaders in grades 5 & 6 who are specifically trained in the mediation process to provide another opportunity for all students to resolve conflicts/issues peacefully. Two mediators each day also eat with primary students and go on the playground for the primary students’ lunch recess.
