Reading Bowl registration for the 18-19 school year is now CLOSED. Registration closed on September 14, 2018.
Tome offers students a diverse menu of competitions, not limited to just Reading Bowl. All Tome Society, Jr Tome, and Club Tome chapter members (grades 3-12) are invited to participate in as many Tome competitions as they wish. Most competitions are submitted digitally and are completed by individual students, but a few are available as in-person, team, or chapter events. All winners are announced at TomeCon*. See below for the competition menu. Click each competition title for a printable copy** of directions, rubric, and adapted lesson plan for use in your school.
*Submitted competitions must meet a minimum standard in order to be awarded 1st -3rd place at TomeCon. If less than 3 entries are submitted in a chapter level and none of the submissions meet the minimum standard for the event, no awards will be given in that category.
** We are in the process of updating Competition instruction pages to reflect our new 3rd grade members, deadlines, etc. Refer to the information on this page for deadlines and entry information.
