    A team of readers from Wilson Middle School has made school history by earning 1st Place in the WEMTA State Battle of the Books Competition.

     

    Congratulations to Braylee Foster, Ava Wetenkamp, Brynn Hampton-Gregory, Greyson Hampton-Gregory, and alternate Alex James for their outstanding achievement.

     

    Wilson Middle School has sponsored a Battle of the Books team for the past seven years, with previous top finishes of 11th and 13th place in 2021. According to program records, this is the first time a Wilson team has taken first place at the state level, making this year’s victory an exciting milestone for the school.

     

    Battle of the Books (BOB) is a statewide reading challenge offered at three levels: elementary (grades 4–6), middle school (grades 6–8), and high school (grades 8–12). Students read a list of 20 books, studying them closely to remember details about plot, characters, themes, and settings. Teams then compete in a statewide online “battle,” answering questions about the books to test their knowledge and teamwork.

     

    The program encourages students to build a love of reading, explore books they may not have chosen on their own, and engage in friendly academic competition with schools across Wisconsin.

     

    Wilson’s team demonstrated impressive dedication, collaboration, and reading expertise to earn the top spot this year.

     

    Congratulations to these students for representing Wilson Middle School and the Manitowoc Public School District with pride!
