Read For Your School Contest
The Read for Your School Contest was introduced in 2014 as a summer reading competition among the Bartlett City Schools and focused on these goals: 
  • Maximize utilization of the Bartlett Library’s resources by the community
  • Enhance Bartlett City Schools libraries with additional financial support 
  • Foster interaction between the school libraries and the Bartlett Public Library
The competition was an immediate success, and the Friends have been honored to provide $5,000 per year to be divided among the eleven BCS schools and earmarked for their library programs. 

The Read for Your School contest has gone through some variations since its inception, but we hope to continue to support our schools and our community's young readers for many summers to come.
