The California Young Reader Medal (CYRM) program encourages recreational reading of popular literature among the young people of our state. Since its inception in 1974, millions of California children have nominated, read, and voted for the winners of the California Young Reader Medal.
Young people recommend the titles of their favorite books for nomination, or teachers and librarians note repeatedly read or requested titles, and these are submitted to the California Young Reader Medal Committee. Members of the committee read the suggested books, discuss their merits and appeal to children, and then decide upon a well-balanced list of nominees.
4th- graders: Arthur Z., Kelson J., Shalom L., Karissa L., Alanna C, and 5th-graders: Andy H., Justin F., Annabelle C., Melissa L., Melanie Y., and William B. won the California Young Reader Medal Awards and were given their certificates by Ann Mize in morning assembly.
