Students Hope to "Bee" Our Top Speller
You’ve been asked if you’re smarter than a fifth grader. But, can you outspell a fifth, sixth, seventh, or eighth grader?
Come out to the Wadsworth Elementary School cafeteria on Wednesday, January 16th at 6:00 pm to find out during our county Spelling Bee. We promise you’ll have a tough time resisting the urge to reach for your smartphone as you try to (silently) spell along with our contestants.
Our county champion will go on to our regional competition in Jacksonville. The 75th Annual First Coast Regional Spelling Bee will be held February 19 at Jacksonville University.
The Scripps National Spelling Bee Finals are held the week of May 27th in the Washington, DC area.
