If you see one of these fifth graders, high five them! They did perfect and brought home the gold (VERY large trophy) to Shorecrest this week! They are so proud to be named Bay Area Association of Independent Schools (BAAIS) Battle of the Books Champions!! Team Captain Gabi H, and teammates Jackie C, Victoria D, and Sean S!
Our sixth-eighth grade team did VERY well and went for the gusto in the end. Unfortunately, it resulted in -5 twice so we dropped from 3rd to 6th place. BUT... it was equally as exciting. They were coached to go for it in the final round, so they did EXACTLY what they needed to do... just came up a little short! Team Captain Iona H, and teammates Noah S, Ben N, Cían M, and Katie W.
