EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Although Battle programs at each level are conducted differently, they share the common goal of getting as many students involved in reading as possible. At the elementary level students in grade 4 read the 15 elementary level Sunshine State Young Readers Award books, plus an additional three titles. Middle school students in grades 6 to 8 read the 15 middle school level Sunshine State Young Readers books and at the high school level, students in grades 9 to 12 read the 15 Florida Teen Reads Books. ESE students in grades 3 to 5 read 10 books. The students begin reading the books in the fall and continue until the spring when qualifying tests and battles take place.
