“Today, we’re celebrating these 500 students and their teachers for achieving something most people only dream of – publishing their own books. We’re also celebrating publishing 14 million student-authored books since our beginning and recognize Mrs. Medders’ super creative first-grade class for helping to reach this meaningful milestone,” said Chad Zimmerman, president and chief executive officer, Studentreasures Publishing.

“Engaging students in the hands-on learning process of publishing their own books inspires a love of reading and writing, as well as great pride. We applaud these dedicated educators at Moore Elementary, along with 40,000 additional schools across the country, for incorporating student publishing as part of their classroom lessons year after year. We also wish the best of luck to the Moore Elementary students on their entry into the National Book Challenge and chance to win $5,000 for their school!”
