| Battle of the BooksNCSLMA sponsors Battle of the Books for Elementary, Middle, and High School competitions. Battle of the Books began as a program for middle school students, grades 6-8. The program has expanded to include elementary and high school levels. Students at participating schools read books from a list established by the state Battle of the Books committees and then compete in quiz bowl style tournaments to test their knowledge of these books.
