Mr. Crisafi
Eighth grader Madison Lichtig is given a word to spell by Mrs. Devine yesterday. Lichtig qualified for the school finals next week.
Last week, 33 students in grades six, seven, and eight qualified for the School spelling bee which will take place in the BPAC on Wednesday, January 14. All students in these two grades participated in the bee in each of their respective English classes. The bees were conducted orally, not written, with each student having to spell the word aloud after the word was provided by that student’s English teacher. Two winners were drawn from each section (and one section had three) for a total of 33 school bee qualifiers. The 33 qualifiers are as follows:
Sixth Grade
Lukas Burnett
Olivia Cornett
Julian DiFilippo
Robin Howley
Nick Lutz
Will Mahon
Cade Odom
Kayla Schneider
