Battle of the Books

Battle of the Books is a county-wide quiz bowl style competition based on a pre-selected collection of middle school books.  Students read on their own time and practice quizzing on Wednesday mornings before school.  This team is for highly competitive students who love to read and are detail-oriented.  

Competition will be March 18, 2026 at Horry Georgetown Technical College.

If you'd like to be on the BOB team, contact Mrs. Murphy for more information.
