Good morning! Below is some information about the annual McPherson County Spelling Bee.
Dear Parents,
The annual Spelling Bee for grades 3rd-8th will be held Feb. 2, 2022. Students in those grades will take a written test that morning. The top two spellers in each of those grades will advance to the oral contest that will be held that afternoon.
The oral contest will be held in the high school gym. It will begin at 1:30p.m., and the public is invited to attend. The winner will advance to the State Spelling Bee. We hope to see you then.
