Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl Team
Do you enjoy reading? Do you like competition? If you answered yes to these questions, there is a club for you at LHS! The Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl team competes against other high schools around the state in a trivia type format based on the twenty Georgia Peach Book Award nominees. The HRRB meets every other Wednesday after school in the Media Center. For more information about becoming a team member, see the media specialist, Mrs. Crowe, in the Media Center.
Each year, members read the twenty Georgia Peach Book Award Nominees to prepare for the competition season, which runs from January through March. During each round of competition, students are quizzed on their book knowledge. Moderators pose ten questions per round, and players, working in teams of five, buzz in as fast as they can to answer each question.
The Loganville High School Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl team was established in 2010. Since then, the team has earned numerous awards, including a second place title at the 2019 state tournament.
