2010 Quiz Bowl
Quiz bowl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quiz bowl (or quizbowl) is a family of games of questions and answers on all topics of human knowledge that is commonly played by students enrolled in high school or college, although some participants begin in middle or even elementary school.
Though any student may audition to join a team, quiz bowl also is recommended as an enrichment activity for gifted and talented students. Participants may benefit from studying a broad range of academic subjects, increasing memorization and study skills, learning to work in teams and expanding capacity for responsibility.
The game is typically played with a lockout buzzer system between some number of teams, most commonly two teams of four or five players each. A moderator reads questions to the teams, whose players endeavor to buzz in first with the correct answer, scoring points for their team.

Richard O. Jacobson Literacy Night 2010
Creating enthusiasm for reading is one of the greatest things a school can do for its students. The Literacy Night at Richard O. Jacobson Elementary was a great success. Parents, Grandparents, Students and Staff had a wonderful time celebrating reading and literacy!! Students were very excited to perform "Gotta Keep Reading'' to the tune of Black Eyed Peas song "I Gotta Feeling" and many families were able to purchase books from the Scholastic Book Fair.
Go Broncos!
