S-P-E-L-L-I-N-G B-E-E! November 1st marked our schools first Spelling Bee Competition. Leading up to the event our teacher assistant, Mrs. Ashley, went from class to class in search of two competitors to represent their homeroom. Each student was given an academic appropriate word to spell to make it to the finals. The day of the event we had 8 competitors (two were absent) to represent their class. Parents of the competitors were able to come to watch their students compete for the champion title. The student who did not participate cheered on their representative win or lose! By the end of the competition our student, Josie, won! The smile on her face when she was the last one standing absolutely lit up the room. We are so glad we are able to host events like this to bring confidence to our students.
