Marlette High School hosted the Quiz Bowl competition last night. There were many students who participated, and did well!
The Marlette Battle of the Books teams traveled to Brown City Elementary on Tuesday, March 12th. Each grade level was tasked with reading at least eight books from their list of 22 best-selling children’s books. Many students went above and beyond with the number of books read and spent many hours studying.
The 4th-grade team included Aria Dischinger, Finlee Hunter, Elizabeth Perry, Nathan Marsa, Evelynn Wood, Aubrey McRobbie, Riley Noble, and Emma Flowers. They placed 3rd and read a combined total of 98 books!
The 5th grade team also finished 3rd, including Alayna Martiss, Ashleigh Ulmer, Carter Schlueter, Kendall Thompson, and Sam Bishop.
The 6th grade team finished 4th, including Aria Bednaryczk, Jack Hines, Virginia Dean, and Zoie Thompson.
“A Message in the Bottle” is part of our ongoing Pirate Theme for Reading Month.
Third graders partnered with kindergarteners and read various books to them each week. It is incredible to see students engaged and happy to participate and discuss the stories that they read with each other.
