SUNSHINE STATE READERS

The Sunshine State Young Readers Award (SSYRA) Program is a statewide reading motivational program for students in grades 3 through 8. The purpose of the SSYRA Program is to encourage students to read independently for pleasure and to read books that are on, above, and below their reading level in order to improve their reading fluency. Sunshine State books are selected for their wide appeal, literary value, varied genres, curriculum connections, and/or multicultural representation.  Each year (15) Titles are selected.  

Westgate Elementary students in Grades 3-5 interested in reading the current SSYRA list are eligible to compete for a spot on the school's Battle of the Books Team which represents Westgate at a Countywide Book Trvia Contest against other elementary schools.

The list of books for 2020-2021 can be found here.
