Philadelphia Reading Olympics

The Philadelphia Reading Olympics is a city-wide collaborative reading competition coordinated by PHILADELPHIA READS, the Free Library of Philadelphia, the School District of Philadelphia, and the City of Philadelphia.  It engages 4th through 8th graders from Philadelphia’s public, parochial, charter, independent and after school programs in a reading competition.  The teams come together in May at an assigned college campus location to answer questions about the books. Volunteers from area businesses join with members of the community to ask questions and keep score.  For information about volunteering at the 2012 Reading Olympics, click here.
