We're Not Last! We're Not Last!

Congratulations to the Radioactive Readers from Kalamazoo, MI. They won the Global Reading Challenge competition this morning. EC’s team only missed one question in the scored rounds, but that was enough.

Regardless of today’s results, I’m so proud of EC and the rest of her team. They really put a lot of work into preparing for the competition, and I think it was a great experience for them. I also want to thank her school librarian, who gave up her own lunch hours and breaks to help coach the kids – especially during the last couple of weeks.

If any of you have kids – GRC is a great program. I encourage you to talk to your local library about getting a program like this started in your area if they don’t already have one.

Thanks, as always, to everyone who was pulling for EC and her team!
