 Read To Succeed: Minimize

King Science and Technology Magnet took first place at the "Read to Succeed" competition on April 2.  The competition, sponsored by the Omaha Public Schools Office of Gifted and Talented Education, required that students read 19 books and prepare to answer questions regarding them. 

Students had to identify the title of the book that matched the information asked for in the question.  Additional points were given for knowing the author.  King's four-member team competed against 15 other O.P.S. schools in the double-elimination competition and came away victorious.  Way to go 6th grade Wildcats!
