Hi Families:

Classroom spelling bees were held the last week of December, and one to two students from each class will participate in the school spelling bee. If your child participates in the school spelling bee, you are welcome to come watch, you’ll just need to check in with the office as usual. You will also have the option to watch the bee via zoom at

Our school spelling champion will represent us in the El Paso Spelling Bee. The winner of THAT bee will participate in the Scripps National Spelling Bee, which will be in the late spring of 2026 in National Harbor, Maryland.
Please note that during the school competition, students will be given words randomly, without regard for age or grade. The spelling bee is single elimination; the last speller remaining in the competition is the winner.
