Last month we had the spelling bee which was definitely an experience! The Spelling Bee this year was organized by Mrs. Henegan. In first place, winning the Middle School Spelling Bee was 6th grader, Abhishek Kabra, second place was 4th grader, Yoon Kim, and third place was 8th grader Margaret Dinh. In the Primary building, our first place winner was 3rd grader Ira Pandya, second place was 3rd grader Zidan Mahmoud, and there was a tie for third place with 2nd grader Karl Oertvig and 1st grader Ryan Raees.
Congratulations to all of our amazing spelling bee winners! Our building winner Abhishek Kabra will take a digital spelling test next week in hopes of qualifying for the CPS City-Wide Bee. The City Bee will be represented by the Top 50 Spellers of CPS Schools!
Good Luck Abishek!
