Students from 12 elementary schools read 16 books each to prepare for this year’s Battle of the Books competition—and their hard work showed.
After an exciting quiz-bowl-style tournament, congratulations to Union Elementary for winning the 2026 Lincoln County Schools Elementary Battle of the Books competition for the third year in a row.
Second place: St. James Elementary Third place: Rock Springs Elementary
