CONGRATULATIONS! Both teams answered dozens of questions correctly. After winning the SES championship, our first place team went on to beat Leverett Elementary School in a Skype BOTB. Thursday they go up against last year's Union 28 champs, Swift River.  Go SES!

S.E.S. Battle of the Books Champions!

Here's where the picture should be, right?!
My apologies--I promise to get a picture of the winning team up soon!
For now, congratulations to all who participated, and especially to both teams that made it to our championship round. You all were amazing in what you remembered about the books, in how you listened to your teammates, and in your sportsmanship. Go SES!
