Gwinnett County Public Schools (GCPS) will host the 2024 Gwinnett Readers Rally at Peachtree Ridge High School on Saturday, February 24. This annual event, renowned as the most significant reading event in the county, will see participation from 87 schools across all levels and clusters.

      Students have dedicated eight months to delve into ten carefully selected books representing the finest in modern children's literature. High school teams will engage with titles from the Georgia Peach Award for Teen Readers nominees. In contrast, elementary and middle schools will tackle a curated list of ten highly recommended books determined by a committee of GCPS media specialists, teachers, and parents.

The Rally will feature teams from each school competing head-to-head in a quiz-bowl-style format, testing the students’ knowledge of the Rally books. The winners from each division will advance to the division championship, slated to be televised by GCPS TV on Tuesday, March 5.

     Approximately 1500 attendees are expected at the event, promoting literacy and fostering community engagement.
