Black-Eyed Susan Book Award

Each year since 1992, the Black-Eyed Susan Book Award has been given in several categories. The purpose of this award is to promote literacy and lifelong reading habits by encouraging students to read quality, contemporary literature. The books selected to be placed on lists for each category are expected to broaden the human experience and provide accurate, factual information. The Black-Eyed Susan Book Award honors outstanding books, chosen annually by Maryland students.

Neelsville's BES Program

There are four categories of nominated BES books. Once a student has read three books from one category, he/she will be eligible to vote for the best book in that category. Students may vote in as many categories as they are eligible. The voting takes place in school in April. Once the winners for each category are announced, we will have a celebration in the media center for all students who participated in the program. The state winners will be announced as well as the winners chosen by Neelsville students.
