Battle of the Books at Ambrose!
Battle of the Books is a great tradition which we started 5 years ago. Basically, students have to read a minimum of 8 of the Winchester Reading Rocks Books throughout the course of the year. If they have, they are eligible to enter their name a specific number of times based on the number of books read. Their chance increases when they read more books.

It takes teamwork to come up with the answers! |
We also had a number of students who read all 25 books in the Reading Rocks list. This is a major feat and students were recognized that evening. They include (although not all pictured):
Kate Bicks Stephen Burchfield Emily Campo Emily Chesterton Madelyn Dengler
Andrew Houllahan Mitchell Hoyt Anna Jacobson Caroline Linskey Michael Salvatore
