CHARLIE CLASSICS

Students are urged to begin reading classics in junior high school; however,
they may begin participating in the program at any time. They will begin
to accumulate their 100 classics for the Charlie Classics Scholarship Award
during the 7th grade. Students who read 100 classics from the Charlie Classics
Reading Lists will be eligible for the Charlie Classics Scholarship Award
offered at the end of their senior year. On the junior high list, classics
designated with an asterisk (*) will count toward the scholarship. Scholarships
will be paid directly to the college or univeersity which the student will
be attending in the fall. For a copy of the Charlie Classics Scholarship
