Reading Olympics

The goal of Reading Olympics, an annual county-wide reading competition, is to encourage students' reading for enjoyment and to increase reading skills.  Students may participate in Reading Olympics beginning in the 4th grade.  Students collaborate with their teammates to read forty to fifty books that have been selected by a committee of librarians, reading specialists and classroom teachers.  These professionals read the books and write questions which teams of students answer during the competition.  The Olympics are primarily a celebration of reading rather than a contest.  All participants are awarded ribbons.  Since the teams generate much excitement about this event, the experience is rewarding for everyone involved.
