School wide spelling bee

Dear Families,

Today we kicked off our very first School Spelling Bee! Your children should be bringing home a packet of spelling words to memorize. Please encourage your children to practice, practice, practice! 1st round tests will be given on the 16th for lower elementary students, the 21st and the 22nd for Upper Elementary and Junior High students. The three students who spell the most words correctly from each class will represent their class in the school wide spelling bee on May 8th.
