Bluebonnet Voting!

Posted Date: 01/15/2025

Capitol, South and LMS third-sixth graders participated in the Texas Bluebonnet Award Program. Our students joined more than 75,000 other students from across Texas to vote for their favorite title from the master list. We thank our Librarians, Mrs. Alexander, Mrs. Clowe, and Mrs. Harkins, for #expectingexcellence and for motivating students to read for pleasure every day. The Texas Bluebonnet Award is one of the most prestigious children’s choice literary awards in the United States. Each year, 20 books are chosen for the Texas Bluebonnet Award List by Texas Librarians. Schools and libraries around the state participate in the program, encouraging students to read a minimum of five books from the list. In January, once students have completed at least five of the 20 books, they vote for their favorite title. Our librarians will have the opportunity to meet the author of the winning Bluebonnet book at the Texas Bluebonnet Award presentation in April. We are very anxious to find out the winner.
